Cannot seek in the Seekbar

Bob Trentington 11 years ago updated by CvsRadio1 - Reggae Jam 7 years ago 36

I have a Verizon Glaxay Nexus and it seems that ever since I upgraded to Android 4.2.2 I can no longer seek correctly with the Seekbar. Any time I go to move the bar to any location of buffered music it always goes back to the begining of the stream. The Seekbar does fill and the metadata points are still there. I have the Stream engine set to Android since that's the only setting that works (even before when I was on Android 4.1). If I have it set to FFMpeg no stations will connect also the same when I was on Android 4.1.

Please note that the media seeking issues was seen on older versions of XiiaLive. If you have installed v3.2.0 or greater this issue should no longer be happening unless you have selected the Android stream engine. You can check what stream engine you have selected by going under XiiaLive Settings/Stream.

Change bluetooth pause to stop?

Kelby Arnold 11 years ago updated by Razvan Terenche-Work 4 years ago 3

1. I love your Android app!

2. When I press the play/pause button on my LG bluetooth headset, XiiaLive pauses the music. But I'd rather have XiiaLive stop the music, since I always listen to streams. Is there a setting for this, or could you add one?

Answer
Jona (Lead Developer) 10 years ago

Thanks for your feedback! This is a great idea. I will add this to our new ideas list. Essentially provide a way to map BT key presses to actions such as play/stop/prev/next/etc...

Streaming stuttering when screen is locked ICS 4.0.4

solo9999 12 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 12 years ago 10
Hi,

Running XiiaLive 2.2.4 on ICS 4.0.4, Samsung Galaxy Nexus CDMA. When I lock my screen, audio starts stuttering. Internal stream engine is disabled. Streaming 64 kbps from http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=337675. Tried install / reinstall. 

Any ideas?
Answer
Jona (Lead Developer) 12 years ago
There is currently and issue with Android 4.x in regards to streaming. When the screen is shutdown the network speed is slowed down and sometimes completely turned off.  This is most likely the issue.

Choose application's language

Anonymous 13 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 13 years ago 0
Please give us possibility to choose application's language.

I.e. italian version is translated at only 50% (by some software and not human it seems) and translation's quality is very crappy.

It would be really nice to be able to choose english language in application settings.

Thank You

This is a great idea we did have in our plans but haven't provided that option yet. If you like to contribute with translation please let us know! :)

Add share all option for tags and favorites

gmd 13 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 13 years ago 7
It's tiresome to send such information one at a time when you have an extensive list. Users will appreciate this as an alternative means to backup their lists, if sd cards somehow fail. It's not easy to restore such data once lost.
Answer
Jona (Lead Developer) 13 years ago

Thanks for your feedback! This is an area we really like to expand very soon! We have some great ideas and hope we can have them implemented very soon.


Update 05/09/11:

Swap station and artist/title screen locations.

newman 13 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 13 years ago 0
The station changes infrequently. The song title and artist change more frequently. You devote much more screen real-estate to the former when devoting it to the latter would be much more useful, especially in a mobile environment.

Thanks for your suggestion! It definitely makes sense! I'll discuss with graphics designer see what we can come up with...

Where is the stream bitrate chooser?

Peter Matthews 9 years ago 0
From a web search it appears the option to choose from From different streams with different bitrates, when offered by the station, was previously in this app. Has it been removed and if so why? I purchased the pro version of this app. I need low bitrate streams when not home so I don't blow past my data cap! I don't want to go back to TuneIn but will be forced to without a bitrate option.

Can i  use xiiaLive online on my PC?
Answer

Unfortunately we don't have it available on PC YET. :)  We do have plans to provide a PC version that works in sync with your phone.

Authenticated stream are currently supported by XiiaLive. Links that require login will now prompt the user to login. Also, adding stations that require authentication can be saved securely in your favorites and will not require authenticating again when playing it.

favorites management

Krzysztof Byszewski 11 years ago updated by paul 9 years ago 4

Juts one more thing from me regarding favorites  It's nice the way it categorizes the stations I picked but would be nice to switch into "folder" mode in a sense that I would like to be able to create a folder like sky.fm and put all sky.fm radios I like in there and for example DI folder for Digital imported.


You might keep the current favorites if it's working for others, just consider adding alternative way that you might switch in settings.


Thanks Guys!

Definitively a great idea.  I think having a folders feature that is separate from genre/category would be good to have.


I think adding an option to view by Genre or by folders would be good to have.
