This issue has been seen across multiple devices. The main issue is with these devices containing buggy Android media framework. In many cases this issue has been resolved after upgrading to a new version of Android or in other cases simply restarting the device.
Because of this error and the uncontrollable versions of the Android media framework across devices we have been working hard on a brand new stream engine that handles every single area of streaming and playback. This should solve a lot of issues in the near future. Stay put for updates on this new stream engine.

Any way to save the station playing to favourites without typing in the URL?

Yes, simply find the station you like, start playing it and press the bit ( + ) button on the player. That will save it to your favorites.

Internal error -14
Skip to next track ~15 times causes Internal error -14 on bluetooth.
Galaxy S4 Verizon KOT49H.14545VRUFNC5
1. Make sure your Bluetooth headset is connected
2. Start XiiaLive Pro
3. Touch the play button on screen
4. Once the station starts playing, touch the 'next track' button on screen
5. Repeat step 4 for about 15 times
Expected: next station starts playing
Actual: internal error -14
Sometimes after skipping to the next track the status text will display 'playing' but no audio.
Experiment results when skipped to next track for...
11 times: internal error
12 times: no audio. Skip again: internal error
13 times: no audio. Skip again: no audio. Skip again: internal error
Reported this same issue some time ago and was informed about the 'press and hold the stop button' trick. The trick still works, however it's dangerous while driving and impossible while riding a motorcycle (helmet with Bluetooth set).
Emailed with an attached bugreport.txt that was created as soon as an internal error message appeared.
I believe this issue is present for more than a year now if not more. Please help.

very poor quality with AAC+.
I've got very poor quality with AAC+.
The stream is played without interruption but the sound is very crapy, high frequencies are reproduced but with a lot of quatization noise (like if it was downsampled in 8 bit deph), and the low freq present but at a lower level.
If I play the same stream (http://stream-aac.frequence3.net:7070) from an other material (my computer under win7, foobar2000 v1.1.5, or winamp v5.61) I do not have this quality issue.
If I encode an AAC+ file end I play it on my androide device with poweramp the sound is very good.
I think the AAC+ decoding engine of xiialive is bugus.
My device is Motorola Defy, with original android 2.1 (I do not take the time to customiz my rom yet)

Previous versions of Android such as 2.1 have a bad AAC decoder. We use the phones decoder for playback. If you like to test our beta internal stream engine, just go under XiiaLive settings -> Advanced users and switch Internal stream engine to ON. Remeber that it's in beta state and track information is currently not working....

Stream plays intro, stops, restarts stream
The stream I listen to has a intro to it before the actual radio station starts. Here is the URL for the stream: http://mozart.wkar.msu.edu:80/wkar-fm-mp3 It starts playing, plays the intro, then says that it "completed" then starts buffering and playing again getting the intro.
This used to work fine a few days ago. I have a Droid X phone and the only thing that changed is that I upgraded to the Gingerbread release.

This is an issue with a particular intro audio clip merged into the live feed. The broadcasters tools are merging the audio frames incorrectly and some Android phones seem to choke and not be able to recover from out of sync audio frames. That is why on some phones such as yours this is an issue. I'm currently looking into how this can be resolved.

Overlapping streaming of mp3s in m3u playlist
I note that there's a pause between mp3s in a m3u playlist. It'd be nicer if the app could start buffering the next mp3 in the playlist once the current mp3 is fully buffered.

Problem Restoring Database
Hi,
Can't restore dB for some reason. Had no problem in the past. Tried un-installing and re-installing Xiia (paid) but stations or tags don't show up. When I went through the process the first time the application would stop/crash. Tried this several times. When I re-installed the crashing stopped but still no results.

Unfortunately it seems like you're backup is corrupted... Could you email your backup file? It should be located on the sdcard. I could verify if it's corrupted and see if I can fix it...
Because of this kind of issue we are changing how we do backups. We will use a different method that will cause backups to never get damaged... :) Plus, we are adding cloud syncing for favorite stations and songs...

Connection drops when a text message is received or sent
Using the Lite app, on my HTC Incredible (Android 2.2, Verizon Network), when streaming, if I receive or send a text message, the connection drops and has to be re-established. This happens every single time

It is a restriction of any CDMA network. You can only have a voice or data going at once, not both... unless you are connected to wifi, then you can have both.
Verizon and Sprint are both CDMA. Texting falls under the category of voice and not data.
