Modern Music? Is it a good player?

PS: I realized that both MixRadio and Xbox Music have this problem.
I'll try this moderm...

I just corrected the spelling. Modern Music is the app and yes I like it a lot. It has proper album artwork displayed on the live tile, hasn't given me a single odd behavior issue with its primary function: PLAYING MUSIC. It's a nice, simple, quick and easy to use app.

Strange. I've switched over and not had a single issue that I had with xbox Music. Have you rebooted the phone since installing the new music app?

No, i didn't. I'll try to reboot and i'll give u a feedback.

Update: Unfortunately, the problem is still present. After reboot i launched the Modern Music - after 10-12 songs it stops play :/

Nope. It's been over a month now. I've emailed the guys at WPC on the tips email twice and never heard back or seen anything in their news about this. :/ This is a much bigger deal that missing artwork.

The only workaround I have found is to have your phone plugged into a charger. If you aren't listening at home or in your car that is useless. Plus bad for your battery.

I still have the problem too. Using Xbox music it is just like before. It stops playing unless it is charging. It's been like this for over 5 weeks now. I have hard reset and had the official 8.1 release, and both developer previews since. The problem has persisted through all. :/

and you both have updated to 8.1.1?
Because I happily sat there for 20+ songs. (not on charge or anything else like that.)

Yes. I am on 8.1.1 or whatever the latest update that came out the other day is. Once in awhile it will work. VERY seldom. It has stopped playing on me 4 times since the latest update. I tried a bunch of times to test it after seeing your post.

Anyone have any luck with today's update? I am just downloading it.

Answered my own question. NO!
It did play for a couple hours both times. Maybe that was luck. But it still stopped working with the same symptoms. NOT FIXED.

Ridiculous. I tried the diagnostic app and it had an error twice. It lost all the info. Including what I wrote about the problem.

Another update to the Music app and still not working for me. Songs stopped playing after 3 songs today. Isn't anyone else having this issue anymore?

Not sure what to suggest mate :(
It could well be the DP.... not entirely sure if you want to go to the lengths of 'standardising' your phone to see if that fixes it, then re-adding the DP to see if it stops again?

No. I'm not going that far. I might delete my music from my SD card and reload it to see if that helps. Then let all the Xbox music redownload too.
