Anyone migrate from PlayerPro to a FOSS alternative? (play.google.com)

Looking for a music player that will do a good job of loading album art. It all looks great in PlayerPro, but I tried Auxio and Aplayer but they didn't do a great job of pulling in the album art. Tracks were also incorrectly lumped together with mixed albums/artists.

Any recommendations?

Auxio. Exists in F-Droid.

It took me some time to get used to auxio after switching from rocket music player, but I've come to really enjoy auxio. Would recommend, unless you want smart playlists.

Thanks so much for this recommendation. I ended up forking Auxio to add album cover and id3 tag management, since I couldn't find a FOSS player with those features. Auxio's unique and robust use id3 tags was a great starting point. All the best!
