alarm not working in sleep mode

Manne fa 12 anys updated by Jona (Lead Developer) fa 11 anys 1

 I have a cheap noname tablet with the latest android on it. The problem I am experiencing is that the xiia alarm fails to work as soon as the tablet is in sleep mode. This makes the alarm pretty useless for me. Since I can't seem to find anyone else with this problem I figure it's a hardware issue? Does anyone know what the problem is, and is there a fix or work-around (besides keeping the screen on all night)?

Thanks a lot!

Answer

Some Android devices, specially tablets, can go into a deep sleep. When they go into this deep sleep alarms wont work as you have seen.  We have done some research to try to work around this but havent found a proper solution. We have set this issue on our to do/ to fix list.

Great feedback.  Thanks for your ideas, I would love if we could do this! Only problem is well not enough time to work on it :(...  However we are doing a new release of our app soon that contains 2 skins and the potential to open it up for designers to try making their own skins...

Bring back old style car friendly design

steverow fa 12 anys updated by Jona (Lead Developer) fa 12 anys 0

Please can we have the large volume and start stop controls back for tablet landscape mode. This is ideal for vehicle use and the new player controls are too small.

Answer

Thanks for your request.  We will be looking into designing a more car friendly player hopefully soon.

Cannot stream from VLC

Anònim fa 14 anys updated by Jona (Lead Developer) fa 14 anys 0
I'm trying to stream audio from VLC to xiialive, but I keep getting an unsupported format error. I'm using VLC 1.1.4 on Win7 x64, streaming over HTTP, and I've tried the built-in transcoding options for AAC and MP3. Both streams can be played by Windows Media Player or VLC on another computer. As far as I can tell, the stream from VLC is the same as any stream from the Shoutcast directory. Do you have any suggestions?
Answer
Could you somehow capture the mime type of the stream? It could be possible that the mime type on the HTTP header of your server response is invalid type...

Alarm fails to schedule in Beta version

John Frazer fa 12 anys updated by Jona (Lead Developer) fa 12 anys 2
I am not able to set an alarm in XiiaLive Beta.

I downloaded the app from Google play.
I restore my existing play list from released(paid) version.
I then went to settings, Alarms.
+Add Alarm
changed the time to a couple of hours in the future.
Selected a Station from my play list.
Pressed save.

Error message: Alarm failed to be scheduled!

This is a on an XPERIA X10i v2.3.3 with standard SEMC ROM.

I have now rooted the phone, but the out come is the same as it was on the standard non-rooted version.

Other features in the beta version work OK...that I've looked at.

Clear Channel Radios

Rob Prescott fa 13 anys updated by Jona (Lead Developer) fa 13 anys 0
Is it possible to add clear channel radio stations to the player i.e. like star 101.3 wild 94.9 etc...

I am currently using iheartradio in addition and would like to uninstall the crappy app.
Answer

Yes you can actually add it to your favorites by going to this website from your phone and search for a station:


Once you hit play a popup will come up asking which player you want to use. Pick XiiaLive and then add it to your favorites so that you don't have to go to the website every time.

Widget text color options

Denvernate fa 11 anys updated by Jona (Lead Developer) fa 11 anys 0

I've been hoping you'd add this for a couple years now, but it's still not available.  Can you add an option to change the text color in the widget from blue to white?  It's so hard to read the text in the widget, especially when in a car dock driving around in sunlight.  The black background/dark blue text is not enough contrast to make it easy to read.  Other than that, I really like this app!

Answer
Thanks for your feedback! Yes, widgets are not the best at the moment. We will review them and improve them sometime beginning of next year. They are do for an extreme makeover we just haven't had enough time to work on them.

RTSP & MMS Protocols?

TurboNed fa 14 anys updated by Giancarlo fa 9 anys 6
Can you tell us when RTSP & MMS protocols will be available through XiiaLive application for Android Market, please?
Answer

We currently have something working but it's very very beta... Hopefully we can release beta support at ends of January. Hopefully sooner. Do you happen to have an RTSP url we can use for testing?


Update 05/18/11:

v2.1.8 now supports mms and mmsh.  Not sure if RTSP... you could give it a try.
