1. The radio broadcast server/s is/are possibly down, full or no longer available.
2. The broadcast moved to new servers. In the case they move to new servers you can just try finding the radio station again via search and add it back to your favorites.
Lost Backup File
I have been add stations to the Favorites list by editing the "backup.xiia" file and saving it to "sdcard/xiialive/backup/backup.xiia" . I may have done something wrong, because now when I select "Restore from xml file" I get an error message saying "Backup file not found under path:" "/storage/emulated/0/xiialive/backup/backup.xiia".
Any suggestions about how to fix this problem?
Hey @DonpK sorry for the delay responding to your question... :/ and thanks @Evildog for your help! :)
So doing what you did should have worked. If the file was corrupted for some reason I think it should have given an error saying that it was corrupted. You can attempt to retry the action and right after trigger a bug report. On the bug report place this post URL as a reference. Hopefully, that gives me an idea what is going on. Also, the other deal would be to look at your actual backup file.
So anyways, the xiia file is a bit tricky to edit and can break easily, mainly because it wasn't made to be edited. Also, doing backups and restores is way to hard... For that reason we created a new way to backup and restore your favorites which is super easy. Release v3.3.1 is now slowly rolling out with this feature.
So now with the new backup file it is a bit easier to know how to modify the file. Also, the backup is now shared to any location you want. To restore you can just tap on the file from any location, email, dropbox, etc... and XiiaLive will be suggested to open it.
1. Remove broken widget
2. Restart phone
3. Add widget again
Utilize 60 minute buffer in car without cell service or wifi
Is there a way to listen to the 60 minute buffer cache without cell service or wifi? Is there a setting to put the paid version on so you do not get a connection timeout and lose your buffer cache!
I do not have cell service so I wanted to cache 60 minutes in the buffer over wifi and then listen to the 60 minute cache in may car without using a cell service.
Hello Adam,
as Evildog says, holding the selected station on History, then you will get a menu where you can remove it.
Thanks Evildog.

"Screen Timeout" Disable when playing
Pressed play will disable the screen timeout. Pressed stop will enable default screen timeout.
Make progress bar
What usually happens is radio stations take their streams down temporarily for maintenance and then bring them up in a few hours or sometimes days. Also, some streams are pirated and can be taken down.
Native support for Android Auto and/or Apple CarPlay
XiiaLive Pro works great with my Sony Z3 Compact, car's Bluetooth and steering wheel controls. However with Android Auto, I would love to control and view XiiaLive advanced features with my car's touchscreen.
Hi Scott,
