Bluetooth AVRCP metadata not working Samsung Note 3
To summarize this post:
Previous release of XiiaLive we decided to disable the Bluetooth AVRCP metadata "HACK" for Android versions 4.3 and greater. The reason was that since Android 4.3 Android OS made some APIs available to send metadata over Bluetooth using a legit API. However, it seems that some devices fail to properly support the new APIs and for that reason we have re-enabled the "HACK" on the latest release.
The "HACK" can be enabled if not already enabled here:

High CPU usage on Samsung Galaxy S2
Although it functions impeccably, Xiia Live free version is causing a High CPU usage on Samsung Galaxy S2. When I stop listening I have to always stop it from Task Manager. Otherwise it will drain my battery very quickly. Also, Task Manager shows 7-9% cpu usage even after I press STOP on the player and the mobile connection shows it is still active.
The cpu usage on the free version is due mainly to ads with some type of animation. This is normal cpu usage when animations or things are moving around visually. Also, the player scrolling text will cause CPU usage.
I see there is a CPU usage on the free version for some reason after closing the app. I'll take a look since this shouldn't be happening! Thanks for discovering that!
Internal stream engine bug report (2.1.9 paid version)
I realize it is in the beta stage right now but thought you might like to know of any issues.
If wifi, and 3g are on, when the phone goes out of range of the wifi, the internal stream engine will not attempt to connect to the available 3g signal, instead what happens is a, what I call a "endless audio loop". the last 500 milliseconds or so of audio at the time the phone looses the wifi signal, loops endlessly, and Xiialive becomes unresponsive, the only way to restart Xiialive (streaming engine) is to go to the app manager, and force stop Xiialive, this will happen with any Mpeg stream (I haven't tested AAC) If the android stream engine is used this does not happen, Xiialive just pauses and resumes audio using 3g.
My details are: PHONE-Samsung Captivate; OS-Froyo 2.2 stock firmware; OPERATOR-AT&T.
To avoid any confusion, in previous posts I made, I was on US Cellular using a Samsung Mesmerize, I got tired of CDMA data issues so I am now on AT&T, much better on the data side now. :-)
If you need any further information, just let me know and I will try to give you as many details as possible.
Have a good day. :-)

Can not open pls and m3u files
2.) OS: Android 4.4.4

5.) I clicking the es file explorer and then scrolling to the .pls & .m3u files, then selecting a file, and then it shows me that comnnection failed
So, please help put of that problem :)
Playlist caching causing playback to fail
Add a new favorite into Xiialive with a URL like this:
http://abc.com/playlist.pls
Where playlist.pls file contains the following stream addresses:
http://server1.abc.com/station.aac
http://server2.abc.com/station.aac
In this case Xiialive will behave correctly, playing the stream from server1. If that address fails, Xiialive will play from server2.
However, suppose later in the day the contents of http://abc.com/playlist.pls has changed to the following because server1 and server2 are down:
http://server3.abc.com/station.aac
http://server4.abc.com/station.aac
Now when the user attempts to play the station Xiialive will have cached the server1 and server2 addresses and still attempt to play them, and playback will therefore fail.
Workaround:
Currently the only workaround I've found is to briefly play a different station (this will flush the cached stream addresses) and then reselect the favourite. This will cause http://abc.com/playlist.pls to be re-downloaded and playback will succeed.
Suggested solution:
Provide a setting toggle to force the playlist to re-downloaded on each playback attempt.
