I'd like to allow a user to select a path to local audio files, in Android and iOS devices. Is there a way I could provide a list of available songs, in Android or iOS devices, so the user could pick and play them?

I am creating a car game. Is any way to play the music stored on the phone inside the game? I'd like the player to choose files that are already on their device and hear them played in the game.  For example, in GTA Vice City game there was a folder named Music, and if we placed songs in there they would play on the car radio while we're driving around inside the game. If we want to switch the songs around, we can do so. how can I do the same in Android and iOS?  I am using unity 5.2, C#.

I want to change the frequency of an audio file. Meaning: the whole file should sound (say) one octave higher or lower. How to do it? Using ffmpeg or other command line open source tool would be preferable.

Should Stack Exchange introduce the ability to upload embedded sounds (maybe via HTML5/Flash, whichever the user has) as part of questions and answers to Stack Exchange?  It could require a certain amount of rep to stop new users from doing it frivolously.  My rationale behind this is the new language &amp; usage sites.  I often find myself thinking that it might be helpful, when discussing a regional dialect or something, for the person answering to just pronounce what they're trying to describe in words.

Anyone know how I can set for an application to output its audio to a specific device in Windows? I'm dealing with applications where it's not possible to go into their settings and choose which output device you want to use.

I am unable to play any MP3 or MP4 files. When I try to open any MP3 or MP4 file, both show an error, a Python 2.7 plug-in is required.

I synced all of the music in my iTunes Library to my iPhone (like it was an iPod).  I've been listening to the music in my Jeep for weeks by plugging into the USB port and choosing songs and playlists from the in-car radio's touchscreen.  (So I know the music is on the iPhone.)  Today, I want to listen to my music with headphones.  Thought I'd try Siri ... I told Siri to "Play Accept Yourself by The Smiths", and sure enough she played it!  (I thought it was pretty cool that worked, actually.)  When the song ended, I thought I'd chose something manually.  On the iPhone I touched the "Music" app/button on the home screen, it took me to a photo of a girl wearing headphones and the "Apple Music" logo.  No lists of songs, no other options.  I went to the "Settings" app, and selected "Music" and I noticed that "Show Apple Music" was switched to ON.  So I turned it OFF.  Went back to the "Music" app, and there's still nothing but the photo of the girl and the "Apple Music" logo.  What am I doing wrong?  How can I see the songs that are my iPhone?  Thanks!

I'm having a hard time collecting music I'm interested in through genre. Do I have any options to look for similar music based on a recording / song name?  For example, when browsing a video tagged Music on Youtube, Youtube presents a "Youtube mix":    But there does not seem to be any known service for this.

I would like to have a folder with all my music which is automatically synced on my Android device (Wifi only, plugged in only, like in SugarSync). Is there any hope for this feature to be implemented in the near future.  This would actually make me pay for U1.

There is a Linux (Manjaro) PC without an audiocard. Is it possible to create a virtual audio device? The usage idea is the following: virtual audio device process a sound, then there is a server connected to our sound channel and it transfer the sound to the client (smartphone).

I am quite a non-technical guy when it comes to such stuff and hence looking for "easy" solutions.   On Windows, I had used Red Kawa Videora to convert the various audio and video formats to iPod-playable formats. I think it also has a version which works on Mac.   I would like to know if there is other (possibly better and as much or more user-friendly) software which does the above job of converting various audio and video formats into what Apple products can play. (I guess what works on iPod also works on iPad.)

Is there any way to tinker with the iPhone SDK on a Windows machine? Are there plans for an iPhone SDK version for Windows?  The only other way I can think of doing this is to run a Mac VM image on a VMWare server running on Windows, although I'm not too sure how legal this is.

Sometimes I want to play games in (near) silence, and don't like the background music to disturb people. If I use the volume buttons, the ringtone volume is changed instead of media volume. When I'm already in the game, the volume buttons do change the volume of background music, but it's kinda too late.  Is there a way for me to change the media volume to a level I like, from the home screen, before starting apps/games?

How can I play audio (it would be like a 1 second sound) from a Python script?  It would be best if it was platform independent, but firstly it needs to work on a Mac.  I know I could just execute the afplay file.mp3 command from within Python, but is it possible to do it in raw Python? I would also be better if it didn't rely on external libraries.

How can I copy the path to a folder or a file? The Info Dialog doesn't allow me to copy the information that stands there ...    Is there an easy way to do this?

I am using a Samsung Tab 2.  There is a path: /mnt/external_sdcard/myfile. Here, I can save, read, or write my file to the external micro SD card.  I'm just wondering if this path is the same for all devices, or if it may be different.

Does anyone know a good desktop client for Soundcloud (are there any)? If not complete feature support then at least a player which can integrate and play Soundcloud account songs.  I found , but it runs using Adobe AIR and Adobe AIR is no longer supported for Linux, furthermore if possible I want to avoid using Wine to run Adobe AIR.
