[Q] Timeout stops mp3's from playing

---

Has anyone had this problem where the screen timeout stops music playing? I've got the wifi disconnect policy set to never disconnect as suggested elsewhere but it makes no difference.

The music stops and after a few seconds starts again and stops and starts and stops etc..

It happens with the Google Music player and Vplayer.

Any help would be appreciated as I want to listen to some MP3's without having to press the power button every few minutes

Have the same issue - have had it since 3.01 -- I use WinAmp, free from market, and does not seem to have this problem.

Glad to help - i wish I know of a workaround for this problem, as I like the stock music players inferface just a bit better.

Yes me too. I also have Lucid Dreamer which i want to try at night and that stops too when the screen timeouts.

I've been having the same issue. Does WinAmp give you Music Beta access? I know the stock player does, which is why I've kept it around.

Me too, with mp3 over wifi, with ever music player, the sound cut when the screen goes to sleep.
I don't find any solution, just the player "poweramp" has an option to let the screen on.
acer hc 3.1

doubletwist. Works for me on 4.010.13 no problem

doubletwist worked for me too and I like it better than winamp.

Cheers
