XiiAlive development dead, off PlayStore , and now (because of security Android changes) gives stupid errors..

Wilson Keith Bradley 9 ай бұрын 0

Hey guys... Paid customer here regarding XiiAlive

Either WE need to find a replacement streaming APP, since I have grown to depend on 'Tag favorite songs' , backup / restore feature. (I still have NOT yet been able to find a replacement) . It Vanished from play store- the developer sucks for not open-sourcing)

OR

Hack, mod, and force XiiaAlive to work without popup errors.

BECAUSE Android is requiring apps to be re-written after Android rev 12+ .

EVERY TIME now Xiialive Pro gives the stupid pop-up error when starting a stream.

"We apologize, XiiaLive Pro was unable to verify your purchase." Error 692274

Only way around is to stop playing that specific stream and 'DISMISS' the stupid error. Not good while driving.

Turns out this is an Android security change over recent years. My phone (Note 20 Ultra- Android 12).

XiiAlive dropped development (and paid customers) without making it open to the public to pick up dev (terrible) hasn't been updated since 2017. If the Developer had sold it to another to rebrand, we would see these features elsewhere. So assuming they just dropped it.

Now I wonder if the 'MyBackup Free' app would have restored everything, thus avoiding the stupid error I'm sure EVERYONE is getting now. If ANYONE NOT getting this error, could make a "MyBAckup Free" backup of XiiAlive and share to test if it works, would be highly appreciated.

I tried "hacking", "Modding" and even forcing it via ADB install (later found out, only works for Android 14 and above, btw)

ANYONE, find a replacement App or a way to get rid of error (Android 12) ???

Thanks

Text Replacement

Internets McAwesome 13 year бұрын updated by Mike Steidl 11 year бұрын 3

Would it be possible to implement some kind of string replacement/removal for the "now playing" text on a per station basis?


A lot of radio stations append the station name to the track name, which upsets the scrobbling (and sharing) features of the app.

Great request, I know exactly what you are saying. It would be interesting feature but I'm not 100% sure how exactly it would work. Do you have any ideas or name of apps that currently do something like this? Any information should help me investigate a bit more. Also, potentially a station that is currently broadcasting as you are saying.

Some aac+ stereo streams not decoding properly

Matthew Osborne 14 year бұрын updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 12 year бұрын 1
I have an LG Optimus V phone running Android 2.2.1, and have installed XiiaLive beta and the latest version on the market.  I've noticed that, when playing lower bitrate aac+ stereo audio streams using the internal stream engine, they only play back in mono.  I know the internal stream engine is only a beta release, but this is something your team may want to look at.  Here are two streams that illustrate this issue:

Verbally command Google Now to launch XiiaLive Pro and play a station

Terina C 11 year бұрын в Android updated by Ben Aldhouse 8 year бұрын 3

How can I verbally command Google Now to launch XiiaLive Pro and play a specified favorite station? I'd like to use Google Now voice commands to launch the XiiaLive Pro app and begin playing a specified previously saved station.

It has been a while since this was posted here. However, recently Google Now and Google Assistant seem to be allowing apps to take advantage of their features. I can't promise when but I have set this feature request as nice to have.

Support for http auth streams?

Morten Børnes 14 year бұрын updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 13 year бұрын 12 1 duplicate

I run a private icecast2 server that I would like to stream on my android phones using xiialive.

But xiialive does not seem to support http auth url's?

When I input http://username:password@streaming.url it just says unauthorized.

And when I input it without username and password it does not ask for a username and password.

The stream itself works fine in vlc/winamp for windows and in winamp for android.

Would love this to be implemented as xiialive is my favourite streaming client for android.

Last.FM scrobbling broken

André Evertz 13 year бұрын updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 13 year бұрын 9

Hi,


since the last Version I noticed a bug with Last.FM scrobbling. When I listen to music it shows up the Last.FM App scrobbling Icon but the scrobbling history of my Last.FM profile is not up to date. It only tracks the music i listened from my pc but not the music i listened on my HTC with XiiaLive.


What I noticed: My Last.FM profile shows up the current song that XiiaLive is playing, but the history of the last played songs is never updated with XiiaLive scrobbles.


I don´t know if this is a Last.FM bug or a bug from XiiaLive.


Thanks for your good App btw.


Device: HTC One X

Android: 4.1.1

Answer

Release v3.0.1.2 contains a much improved last.fm scrobble support.


The main reason why scrobbling wasn't working was do to a bug in the last.fm app.  In order to get it to scrobble working again you must turn off AVRCP metadata feature on XiiaLive. Simply go to Settings->App Control and set AVRCP metadata to OFF.
