I'm following a tutorial and have modified it to come up with this:
String selection = MediaStore.Audio.Media.IS_MUSIC + " != 0";
String[] proj = { MediaStore.Audio.Media._ID,
MediaStore.Audio.Media.DATA,
MediaStore.Audio.Media.DISPLAY_NAME};
Uri uri = MediaStore.Audio.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
String sortOrder = MediaStore.Audio.Media.DISPLAY_NAME + " ASC";
musiccursor = getContentResolver().query(uri, proj, selection, null, sortOrder);
The above code will read all the music on my external. Is there a way for me to specify a specific a folder to read music from? I'm guessing I'll have to change the uri since that is pointing to my external, I think??
Yes you can do by
musiccursor = getContentResolver().query( uri,
proj,
MediaStore.Audio.Media.DATA + " like ? ",
new String[] {"%myfolder%"},
sortOrder);
