Update v2.1.6 has fixed this issue.

UPDATE:
In update v2.1.6 we added some fields that weren't supported by Android 1.5 and possibly some 1.6 devices. We will release a maintenance update this month to hopefully resolve this issues.

This service causes up to 50% CPU usage on Minix X8H-Plus running Kitkat 4.4.2.
Additionally, this service resides in the background, even when I close the App.

reduce traffic usage

Mickey DoubleYou 11 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 11 years ago 2

Hey,

i was wondering, because after an one hour listening the traffic was about 74 mb. This is very much I think. What can I do to reduce the usage of my traffic?

Answer

Super delayed reply!  So yes streaming can use a lot of data and you need to be careful if you have a limited dataplan.


As @Neko Hunter said below, using broadcasts at a lower bitrate will use less data... However it will impact the audio quality.  In general MPEG at lower then 96kbps will start sounding low quality. With AAC/AACP streams under 32kbps start sounding very bad but above that they sound OK.


Another more obvious tip would be to always try to use WiFi when streaming. Any other questions please let me know!

We should be able to assign a station's logo to favourites

Thanks for your suggestion. We have planned to start looking into some redesign modifications to include station art and song art. It might take a little while to have this feature in but it is something we would like to have.

We currently don't provide our own featured picks for stations.  If you like to add your station to the radio directory go to shoutcast.com.  There you will find the tools necessary to list your station on the shoutcast directory.

Volume Bar Hiding

Chibi 12 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 12 years ago 0

Is it just me, or is there a setting I might have mored or something..but I recall the volume bar being integrated into the "Player screen" however, now I have to tap on the lower right side of where the information of what's playing (Double tap) and the options pop up, such as "Tag, favorites, share, timer, equalizer, and now the volume bar".. I then tap on the volume bars, but it's only shows up temporarily and am able to then adjust the in-app volume... Is there a setting that may have been changed by accident? or was this done via an update?

Thoughts anyone? x.o Just need this to be integrated again, since I work in an office where the phone is right in front of me, otherwise it looks like I'm playing LOL. appreciate the help :)

Thanks for taking the time to post about this issue.  What device do you have? From what it seems you have a small screen device.  When the screen is too small we have to hide the volume bar since there isn't any space left.  Have you tried using the "Original" skin? That has the old volume style that is always visible.
