App data usage
Nexus 6 with Lollipop 5.0.1
version of Xiialive: 3.3.0.3
I just bought the pro version of Xiialive. Sofar I'm liking it quite much, but there are some niggles.
Most important one is data usage. The 'About' screen shows some statistics like data usage and total playing time. According to the app I've been listinging to music for 75 minutes. The data usage for this 75 minutes is 70MB; I've only been listening to 128kbps stations so this seems a bit high (128kbps should be around 43 MB per hour unless I'm calculating wrong) but still acceptable. Unfortunately my provider tells me that I've been using 248MB of data. My phone then tells me that 99% of this traffic is caused by Xiialive. This is quite some way removed from the 70MB that the app specified. Do you have any idea what might be going on here? I'm using the app in the car a lot, so using WiFi is not really an option

Under review
Retry with ascending time interval.
Rather than give up after 6 quick retries, it may be more convenient to have retry continue at longer and longer time intervals. This would help greatly when the app is used to stream in a moving auto. The present retry setup sometimes gives up before a network site handoff can occur, requiring the distraction of a manual restart.

Current design loops around a whole playlist 5 times. So if the playlist has only one url it only will retry 5 times, and if it had 5 urls it will retry 25 times. If after any count of retries and it successfully reconnects we reset the amount of retries and you get 5 retries again.
We will review the possibility to allow unlimited retries as an option.

Stream select
I'm missing the function to select from a multiple stream what kind of stream I want to play. For example Frisky Radio offers AAC and two MP3 streams with different stream quality. In TuneIn I can select what kind of stream I want to here. This function I'm missing in XiiaLive. It takes only the first one and I have no change to switch to my AAC stream. I do not want to go back to TuneIn!

Album Art and More Station Information
One of the things that draws me to Tunein Radio is partially a slightly larger selection in the genre of music I'm interested but I balance that with the ability to add stations with XiiaLive. However, I also really like the stations album art and catchphrase is something that I really like about it. It also helps organize stations and set them apart from each other.

Thanks for the feedback. We are currently working to make more content available on XiiaLive.
We also have some nice ideas to improve favorites organization. Should make it even better than is now.

AAC+ streams on LG Optimus V refuse to play.
AAC+ streams not working on LG Optimus V on Virgin Mobile. Tested multiple streams. Loops connecting, buffering, connection dropped quickly and continuously. All work fine on Sprint Hero at hand. Example stream: http://www.thestreamcenter.com/pda/search.asp?search=kspn (the aacPlus stream. The mp3 version works fine.)

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post this here but just asking that when I tune in or play (and scrobble) a song on a radio station (like for instance, mjtunes) in xiialive, Why is like this: Song Title - Artist Name? It should be Artist Name - Song Title, right?
Please reply soon. Any help would be great.
Thanks.
