Always visible "Home" button for Beta

jediguy 13 jaar geleden bijgewerkt door Jona (Lead Developer) 12 jaar geleden 0
Having used your previous version extensively, I found it convenient to be able touch the XiiaLive banner that was present on most parts of the previous version to return to the home screen quickly.  At times I found using that function and then accessing functions directly from the home screen to be quicker and easier than sliding to the toolbar to the function I needed.  I suggest incorporating this same type of always visible "home" button into the new version so that users don't have to slide the toolbar to the home button every time to access the home screen.  If used perhaps the home button currently on the toolbar wouldn't be needed?

Thanks for your feedback. Your concern is valid and let me explain a bit why we changed things a little.  


We essentially wanted to simplify the design and maximize the space for the lists of stations and the player.  By combining all in one menu bar we eliminated the old bottom menu bar and provide a bit more space for other things.


We definitively want to keep your suggestion in mind and will see how to possibly make going home a bit faster.

Organizing Favorites

Big Weave 10 jaar geleden 0
I am trying to organize my favorites so that when I use the Player next/prev set on favorites it scrolls through them in a specific order (i.e. by genre). Looking at the xml data I noticed a pattern that the 'dc' tag seems to be a number that coincidentally matches the patter for which station is played next when the next or prev button is pressed. I would like to know the purpose of the 'dc' tag and if is this something that I can alter to place the stations in the order that I desire.

Does this issue happen with any station you play? What device do you have and what version of android is it running?

MP3 stream buffering on 2.1.7 in Android 2.2

Bryan 14 jaar geleden bijgewerkt door Jona (Lead Developer) 11 jaar geleden 2

I have noticed that when using the following stream on Android 2.2:

http://2503.live.streamtheworld.com:80/KBZTFM_SC

That the stream starts almost immediately, even though I set buffering at 10000ms (10 sec). In Android 2.3.4, it takes about 10 seconds to buffer, then the stream starts...


The stream is way more choppy than when I was using it on  the AAC+ stream earlier.  On a par sometimes with RadioTime (and that's BAD)...

When listening to Favorites via bluetooth with my Jabra BT620, the skip buttons work to change channels... only, two channels are skipped at once.  On Droid.

Automatically reduce Volume on connect

Marc Knaup 11 jaar geleden bijgewerkt door Jona (Lead Developer) 11 jaar geleden 0

It happens so often to me. XiiaLive loses connection and after few seconds to minutes it reconnects - depending on the internet availability.

Or I connect to a station and pre-buffering takes a while. Or I have to stop music for a short period for any other reason (phone call?).

That's all fine so far.


But what's really annoying is that when the music suddenly starts or continues playing, it's so loud it hurts your ears (assuming headphones). It's not because of a bug - it's just that the ears adapted to the silence. And then even 70% volume sound way too loud. It takes a while until the ears adapt to the higher volume again.


It would be awesome to have a setting like 'reduce volume to XX% after YY seconds of silence'. So every playback after the defined duration of silence starts with XX% volume. Android media volume, not app-internal!

Then after playback started I can chose to raise the volume again. There are hardkeys for that - so it's easy.

I could also think of XiiaLive automatically and slowly raise the volume back to the level where it was before it was reduced when starting playback. Changing volume manually would then cancel the automatic raising.


:)

Great feedback! Thanks!


I think it would be great to have a fade-in feature specially for those cases. I think simply fading-in the volume every time playback starts would be pleasant. Potentially having an option to set how long the fade should last.


I'll set this feature request as planned.

Disable notification bar

Neil McIlwraith 12 jaar geleden bijgewerkt door Jona (Lead Developer) 12 jaar geleden 0

Is it possible to disable the notification bar entry/icon? I'm using the Pro app on an Arnova Soundpad (running Android 4.0) and only one notification icon appears to be available at any one time, which means Xiia hides another icon that I'd rather have visible. Thanks.

You can mute the notification updates. However, we can't remove the notification status icon since we are a foreground process and Android strictly requires us to use one. If we didn't streaming would suddenly be killed by the Android OS without any warning.


To mute notification updates:

Go to Settings->General and turn OFF Mute notifications.
