Don't have the app yet? Get XiiaLive or XiiaLive Pro now for Android! Or get XiiaLive for iOS!
crash while browsing directory : international : asian
Tap genre -> international -> asian, then start scrolling down. After a couple screens full of stations, the app will close with "Unfortunately, XiiaLive Pro has stopped."
Happens every time.
Beta stops playing music - unable to restart it
This issue should have been resolved in the latest release of XiiaLive. If you are still having issues please let us know.
Can't add stations to favorites in 3.0.1 + pls with multiple stations
I have an issue that makes Xiialive 3.0.1 unusable.
Whenever I try to add any station to the favorites by either the button on the play screen or enter the url by hand the station does not appear in the favorites (the button in now playing shows gree, as in added, though)
Anther question I have is, how do I add a .pls with about 20 channels at once to Xiialive? If I open it only the first channel is being played and I can't seem to access the others.
Thanks in advance.
Couple key questions to better understand the possible issue/bug. Can you provide the URL you are trying to add? Also, with that send me a backup of your favorites? Email to jona@visualblasters.com. The backup can be done under Settings->Backup&Restore. This will allow me to see what could be going on.
Adding a playlist to XiiaLive causes to create one station that contains all playlist items/URLs. If you have multiple stations=URLs in one playlist right now you will need to add each one individually. However, you could try playing individual stations from the the playlist by going into the player and swiping on the station name from right to left. This will bring up a playlist showing all the items/URLs.
I hope you could understand my explanation! :)
Improve UberStations genre
such as different styles of jazz/classical for example.. you could also add live 365 directory to make up for shoutcast closing.
Force close
II have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled xiia the latest version on my galaxy nexus but I always get force close...
Anyone else with this issue or hire to solve it?
Hey thanks for the feedback. What version of XiiaLive? v3.0.2.2?
If you can reproduce the issue and collect the logs would be great! If you don't know how to collect the logs its fine don't worry... You can also report the crash issue with a message stating that you have posted about it on this forum. This way I can easily find the issues and try to fix it.

Xiaalive disappears as banner ads are loaded
When I begin playing a station from the PLAYER screen, everything works as it should until the app disappears (but keeps playing), exactly as if I had pressed my phone's HOME button. The station continues to play, and I can reactivate the app as I would any other app that had been exited by pressing the HOME button (by re-selecting it from the app menu or by selecting it from my phone's pull-down active app list, for example). However, it will usually quickly disappear again and the whole process must be repeated. This usually happens several times before the app finally becomes more stable (after a few minutes).
It seems to have something to do with the loading of some of the banner ads that appear at the bottom of the screen. When I first start the app and begin playing a station (ANY station), the area at the bottom of the screen is blank- there is not an ad there yet. As soon as an ad does appear, the app invariably disappears (as I said, it's as if I had pressed the HOME button). When the next ad appears, it usually happens again. Once the initial ads are loaded and active, the problem usually becomes less frequent. Note that I only experience this bug when viewing the PLAYER screen. If I start playing a station and then immediately switch to any of the other 8 screens (Home, Talk, Music, Local, Search, Favorites, History, or Settings), operation works properly and the player doesn't disappear, even though the same ads display on those screens too.
Also, the problem only happens when I use the app in portrait mode. If I turn my phone sideways for landscape mode, the app works flawlessly in PLAYER view and all other views (Interestingly, no ads ever appear at the bottom of the PLAYER view when in landscape mode, although they can be seen in all of the other views).
I think I have gone through 4 revision upgrades, but the problem has persisted through all of them so the time has come to post this bug report.
My phone is a Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX (not the HD model) running Android version 4.12. Xiaalive didn't work with the previous Android version either.
My question is this: If you can't or won't fix the bug, do you think the paid version, which I assume will have no ads, will work properly on my phone? I have no objection to paying for this otherwise fine app, but I would like some assurance that it will work correctly.
By the way, I use the player almost exclusively for listening to OTR (Old Time Radio) shows and other talk stations. The built-in equalizer, which many other players don't have, is valuable for adjusting the sound of the often lousy audio of old radio programs.
Are you still having this issue?
Get song title and length to show in an m3u or PLS playlist?
beta version: swipe left and right on main screen is fickle
If you try to swipe left and right in the center of the screen it will not change screens.
If you swipe on the header or footer then it will change.
(over the top where the xiialive logo is or the bottom where the shoutcast logo is)
The transitions between screens is also very laggy probably from loading the lists?
I am guessing this is also just the way it is as well?
Thank you for putting out a quality application!
Since the release of XiiaLive beta to now we have greatly improved the app to perform a lot faster and use hardware acceleration. Hopefully this is no longer an issue on your device.
