XiiaLive USB out
Phone: Sony Xperia Z1 Compact
OS: Android 5.1
XiiaLive Pro: v3.3.2.2
Speaker: Riva S Bluetooth speaker
I'm using XiiaLive via USB playing Audiophile Lounge 320K streamed audio and it sounds really really bad. It 'sounds' as if it's playing the audio stream in mono with no bass and no treble.
It's makes a Riva S Bluetooth speaker sound like a cheap $30.00 1xspeaker/1xbass raditor speaker.
Now it could be that the USB/DAC on the Xperia Z1 Compact is just crap, but I used Neutron Music player to play some .ogg and .flac audio tracks and they sound OK.
Not mind numbing brilliant, but much, much, much better than anything you can get from XiiaLive via USB.
So... this indicates there may be options available to improve XiiaLive audio over USB.

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.

[XiiaLive Beta] What does "Now playing disabled" mean?
On my Favorites list, "Now playing disabled" appears below each station name. What does this mean? Why is it disabled? Can it be enabled?
I'm using the beta version. (Do I need to keep the Pro version installed?)

This is a feature currently under development. The feature will be able to turn it on by swiping down on the top menu bar. However currently this option is not enabled. I'm still not sure if this will be a paid version feature only.

Thanks for your feedback! As of now the Android Market is the only way to purchase the app. Soon we will sell it via Amazon Market.
As of now you can't see it on the Android Market most likely because of a little bug we have introduced to the app on the last update which makes the app not available to some Android 1.5 and 1.6 devices... Update with fix should go out soon.

Bluetooth play/pause not work with screen off
hello, i have Samsung g920f 5.1.1.
I connected Bluetooth Samsung level link, play/pause from Bluetooth not work with screen off.
No difference with settings media control enabled. Even with media control disabled, play/pause still work from Bluetooth with screen on but not work with screen off.
Other apps like Spotify work good with screen off

SHOUTCast video streaming
Can the app handle low bandwidth (200-400kbps) H264 video + MP3 audio streams provided via http from a ShoutCast server?

Our app is currently not designed for video playback. However you could potentially stream the content but receive no video just audio. You would have to go into XiiaLive settings and change the stream engine to be internal... Or using XiiaLive Beta go under settings->Streams and change the stream engine to FFMpeg.
