I repeat the question,which once probably I asked.
Why different kind music players for android they do not see my hard drives? Hi media player is a little poor, in Kodi lack of equalizer.
That's why I'm still looking alternatives.
Thx for help.

Try
[PATCH] Mount storage by UUID / Label --> option 2 Install with /sdcard/media_rw/disk-by-uuid/<uuid^
This will make visible you collection to all Android programs.
Use .nomedia files for folder witch don't need indexing on media scanner.
Disadvantages media scanner will keep active your HDD more that you like/wanted.

What music players have you tried?
-
I tried a few:
BlackPlayer EX,USB Player,Equaliser Music Player,Dub Player,and several other names which I can not remember.Disks were seen only half of the players.Equalizer did not work on all players.
I'm still looking suitable player who will see the drives , will have works equalizer and in addition will have visuals. For now I have spotify, Kodi Music Player and AnyTime Visualizer.

A few months ago a beta version of Poweramp worked for me on 1.0.5 fw. It did see my attached HDD. However I haven't tried Poweramp since updated to 1.0.7 fw. As far as I can tell it has much better Sound Quality on the analogue outputs than either KODI or the HiPlayer. I guess on HDMI they would be all the same. ??? Back then I've installed the Beta, cause I had problems with the interface of the final Poweramp version, but maybe it's now fixed in the current.

KODI on Q10 Pro is fine for me since i use the library and custom playlists,
on my phone i use Onkyo's HF Player which i can recommend for hq playback.

For me Kodi is OK, but lack equalizer and only one visualisation, forces me to search for alternatives.

I am yet to find a music player that actually work properly on this device, usually the screen format is wrong and various options inaccessible.
I have found that Kodi Jarvis 16.1 is ok but as soon as anything happens in the background (emails etc) I get track skipping and stuttering. Kodi 17 is much better in this respect and I noticed no music player problems in the short time it was installed but unfortunately very few of my add-ons worked.
I have tried SPMC but 7.1 passthrough for movies does not work.
It would be great if it was possible to have Kodi 16.1 (for movies and add-ons) and 17 (for music) installed concurrently, is this possible 9other than 17 and SPMC)?
Seeing as Kodi is open source, what would I need to change in the install file to make it different enough to install separately?
Any suggestions please?
