Needs to be quiet while using speech to text

Khile T. Klock hace 14 años actualizado por Jona (Lead Developer) hace 14 años 2
While traveling I will often make use of speech you text to make communication less distracting.... But XiiaLive doesn't shut up when it needs to, so the speech to text works efficiently... Pandora works lively for this, XiiaLive should too.

Thanks for your feedback. I haven't tried using the text to speech feature while streaming. I definitely see this as an issue. I'll investigate to see how I can resolve this issue.

Buttons in the player are too sensitive

Nanren hace 9 años actualizado hace 9 años 3

Buttons are too sensitive in Classic Dark theme. In developer mode, I enabled "Show layout bounds" and i see you make the buttons area to long. Can you remove the 'padding' thing and make it margin area between buttons instead, like you did make margin area between share and 3 dots buttons?

Signal loss, buffer failure.

John Green hace 11 años actualizado por Jona (Lead Developer) hace 11 años 0
I paid for Xiaalive Pro, but it still won't work for me.  I drive for my job and I can listen to Spotify and Pandora for hours with no break in the signal but Xiaalive drops the signal several times per hour at least.  Even if I build up a buffer it still drops connection and the buffer is gone.

What device do you have and what version of Android does it have?


So Pandora and Spotify are very different apps compared to XiiaLive. Essentially those apps connect to a server and download the file that will be played on your device. With XiiaLive it is connecting to a live broadcasting station. The difference is that when the internet connection is dropped Pandora/Spotify can reconnect and continue the download without any problems, while XiiaLive reconnects but most likely would have lost some live radio content.


We have something to improves the experience with Smart Recovery. This tries to reconnect automatically and stitch a connection.

changing stations randomly

Randy Kuehn hace 9 años actualizado por Ralph hace 8 años 1

when I use xiia freshly installed and choose 80's and then select a station, naturally that station stays selected until I act further.

But as soon as I click and make one station my favorite, then go to 80s and select a diff 80s stain than my favorite, it plays that new selection for about 15 seconds and flips to my favorite by itself.

If I have two favorites in my favorite list it bounces from fav 1 to fav 2 after another 15 seconds. Then back to fav 1 etc bounce bounce.

Only at to end craziness delete both favs. Xiia his back to normal. I select any station and it stays put until I select another.

Pick a single fav again, 15-20 second bounce timetime again.

Help!! This is making a great app act crazy. Can't figure it.

Using android 4.4 on Motorola droid. Thanks

Make App work completely independent of the Android Media Framework???

Paul D hace 13 años actualizado por Jona (Lead Developer) hace 13 años 0
Would it be possible to make app work the same as Yourmuze.fm ??

As there app includes its own AAC+ decoder. This means that it works completely independent of the Android Media Framework and they convert the streams to AAC+ before sending it to your phone - this results in low bandwidth consumption, and very high stability...However there huge downside is they dont have a buffer or prebuffer like yours..
Respuesta
Jona (Lead Developer) hace 13 años

Next update I'm allowing users to test the beta internal streaming engine for AAC content... YOu should try that once it's released :)


Update 05/23/11:

XiiaLive v2.1.9 has option to use internal streaming engine... Check it out under Settings->Adv Users

Layout not optimal in horizontal mode

tuxmobil hace 12 años actualizado por Jona (Lead Developer) hace 12 años 0

Hello,

today I've used your app with the phone in an audio dock in which it rotates to horizontal mode. I found the bar on right side that one has to drag into the screen to access the menu rather small (see attached picture). It is very easy to accidentially hit the soft keys of the Galaxy Nexus instead of that tiny bar. I would appreciate if you could reconsider this detail to make access to the menu more easy and safe.


Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, it is close to the soft buttons. We will take a look and see what could be done. Thanks!

Pandora Hijacking Xiia Via Bluetooth

Jamey Sewell hace 11 años actualizado por Jona (Lead Developer) hace 11 años 10

I frequently use both apps connected via Bluetooth radio in my car. Xiia works just fine until I use the car radio to switch to Pandora and then back to Xiia. The car tells me that Bluetooth audio is paused. When I hit the play button on car radio, nothing happens.  I can see Xiia playing on the phone, but not through the radio. To resolve, I have to force close both apps via phone. This is dangerous while driving.  It seems like Pandora is hijacking the signal. Can it be resolved?

Respuesta
Jona (Lead Developer) hace 11 años

Please try turning ON Ignore audio focus under XiiaLive->Settings->Sound and see if the issue still happens. This should let me narrow down the issue.


Also, please provide the following info:

- Device

- Android version

- BT device info

Excessive bandwidth when playing streams

Fran Litterio hace 12 años actualizado por Jona (Lead Developer) hace 12 años 2

On my Droid Razr running ICS I notice that XiiaLive uses waaaay more bandwidth than the stream I'm playing is rated at. For example, a 128 kbps stream causes my download bandwidth to hover around 320 kbps (and sometimes higher). I suspect this is because the playlist for the stream contains multiple stream sources, and XiiaLive is actually streaming more than one of them in case one fails. Is this what's happening? If I play a 128 kbps stream, I expect XiiaLive to use 128 kbps of my bandwidth and no more.

Respuesta
Jona (Lead Developer) hace 12 años

Great question.  There is something tricky we must do in order to stream using Androids hardware decoders.  What it is, is that we have a local server running on your device that reads the stations feed from the internet process the data and hands it to the Android media player. This causes the phone to record double bandwidth but when in reality only half of the bandwidth is internet/data plan used.
