Unable to open pls file

amavarick 6 years ago 0

-Huawei 6x

-Android 7.0

-Unable to open PLS or m3u files from baptistradio.net  I cannot play the pls or m3u either by opening link from browser or downloading it and opening.  xiialive will say it failed to connect.  However I can install vlc or another music player and play the same pls or m3u link or downloaded file.  The backend player is icecast http://stream.baptistradio.net:8005/

-This worked at one time with xiialive.  I can copy and paste the m3u/PLS icecast stream URL into xiialive manually and that will work just fine but that's not really a great solution for the vast majority of internet users.


I'm also a beta user and purchased the pro version.  Other than this one issue, I love your player.

Russian titles album art

7eva 7 years ago updated by adel-s 7 years ago 1

Hello Xiialive,


I have a latest pro version of XiiaLive running on mk809III Android stick (Android 4.4.2).

When listening to the Russian internet radio (for example  http://online.radiorecord.ru:8102/rock_320 ) and there is English title data in stream album art showing correct, but once there is Russian title I am getting the same picture that was probably cached one day for every Russian music i listen..

Can you please fix it? Many thanks!

Internal error E: 209 on Android 4.2.2 (3.3.1.7)

Nanren 8 years ago updated 8 years ago 7

After i updated Xiialive to 3.3.1.7, it does not play anymore. instead, it keep looping (Internal error E: 209) making my device slower, and it kills System UI and make my background black.


Again, do proper QA tests next time. You told me that you promise that but you didn't!


I left beta tester due to that bug. i'm disappointed that i got no proper response from you/supporters/developers. i may not use Xiialive anymore if this happen again in the future.

Scrobble or API support?

Anonymous 13 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 10 years ago 2
Hello - I am developing an Android application that would allow display of what is currently playing in media players on Android. I expect that this application will be well received in the marketplace and I am very interested in incorporating xiialive shoutcast support.

I am able to receive scrobble intents (for scrobbledroid, etc.) from other media players and use those intents for this purpose, but it appears I cannot use xiialive because it does not currently broadcast scrobbling intents.

Is there an API or broadcast intents from xiaalive that I can use to get "now playing" information from xiaalive, specifically for shoutcast?

Thank you for your assistance.

You can read the metadata coming from XiiaLive by listening to the following intent:

 /**
* Broadcast sent out every time there is new metadata available.
* @Extra 
* EXTRA_MEDIA_TRACK_TITLE <br>
* EXTRA_MEDIA_TRACK_ARTIST
*/
public final static String ACTION_NOTIFY_METADATA = "com.vblast.xiialive.service.ACTION_NOTIFY_METADATA";

What particular scrobbler intents where you hopping us to support?  Maybe we can implement them...

Stream doesn't stop correctly after bluetooth disconnect

seanysean 9 years ago in Android / Bluetooth updated by Harry Hirsch 8 years ago 8
I use this app in the car. When I turn the engine off and remove the key, the bluetooth disconnects. I'd expect this to close the app.

Instead, it stays on my notifications as 'paused'. This caused another problem - after finishing work hours later I try to get back but with the BBC using temporary hashes on their streams this doesn't work. So I have to do a manual stop, wait a bit, then restart.

So there's a couple of requests here:

1. Have an option for closing the app completely on bluetooth disappearing.

2. Even if the station is in 'paused' state, after a short period of time reload the playlist and get the latest hash.

Thanks for a great app, far better than how TuneIn have ruined theirs with this social networking malarkey!

Ah! Ok, perfect. Thanks for clarifying this. Yes, this seems like an issue. You should be able to swipe away the notification when playback is stopped.

yourmuze.fm

Gerd Häglsperger 10 years ago updated by Jona (Lead Developer) 10 years ago 1
I tried to use XiaLive to stream yourmuze.fm.
For this I open Dolphin, switch to the website m.yourmuze.fm and tried to start the stream by tapping on the link and choosing XiaLive as application. XiaLive opens but always says, that connection could not be established. Another player does play the stream without any problems.
