Pause playback during phone call
Is it possible to pause Bluetooth Audio Streaming when getting a phone call (via bluetooth - VW Phone) and resume Bluetooth Audio Streaming when phone call is over?
Device - Samsung Galaxy S4
OS - Android 4.2.2
Thanks for your feedback. We are currently working on a new stream engine that will pause playback during a phone call.

Inferior sound quality with AAC+ streams on Gingerbread 2.3.3 (HTC Desire)
Since OpenCORE is no longer part of Gingerbread, I can't deactivate Stagefright (and activate OpenCORE) by editing the build.prop file.
My device is a (rooted) HTC Desire (Bravo), running (original HTC) Gingerbread (2.3.3).
These AAC+ streams sound inferior:

http://livestreams.omroep.nl/npo/aac/3fm_alternative.pls
http://81.173.3.135/listen.pls (PinguinRadio)
How can I get good sound quality with AAC+ streams on XiiaLive?
Why is it I used to be able to use another app while listening but now Xiia Player stops after 5 seconds? Forcing me to not use any other app.
Can you reproduce the issue and do a bug report right after? Go to Xiialive->Settings and at the bottom hit "Bug Report". With that hopefully we can see if it is an issue with the app. Otherwise might be an issue with your device.
Add recording and local file playback support
Thanks for your feedback! Greatly appreciated. We are working on recording feature. Local playback is something we don't really support but it is something we are strongly thinking about.
auto resume
xiialive pro dose not resume stream after loosing it during car driving even with all retry setings on. Why ?
The "No network access" happens when you try to connect to a station and there is no network access. There will be no retry after that error.
So what is happening in your case is that the network connection is lost while you are streaming. Then the connection never returns and the stream engine times out trying to reconnect because the network was never restored. This causes the retry logic to kick in. It tries to connect again and "No network access" is returned causing the retry logic to end.
The smart recovery waits a generous 2 minutes and while it waits for it you will see "Waiting for network access".
I'll look into adding a setting to make the smart recovery timeout customizable.
Hope that helps!
After BT disconnection app persists in background consuming traffic
My plan has some traffic limit, and the "overdraft" is expensive.
I use the app in my car. When I turn the engine off, app stops playing but some sort of widget is present in notification area. Traffic control shows me that XiiaLive continues to consume data. This ends only when I touch the closing "X" control on notification widget.
Looks like app is continuously buffering data in order to resume playback without re-connection. This may be nice, but not in limited networks.
This looks like a bug for me.
Phone is Sony Xperia E3. I cannot tell you the application version, as I found no place where it is shown) Installed from Google market 18-march-2015, Pro version.
A quick solution to this issue and keep things easy to use, is to set up a bluetooth trigger to stop playback when bluetooth disconnects.
Here is how to do that.

I wanted to add my top favorite station by URL

Hi Peter,

Thanks.
Customize favorites order for next/prev
In my Favorites list I want to choose the order, so next/prev switches to another station of similar style. Can you add that capability? See how MediaU Pro does it, with an apparently unlimited number of Favorites, and 10 "Preset" slots you can put any Favorites in whatever order you want.
XiiaLive Pro is the best in almost every other way, so I use it even with its inferior Favorites setup. But you can still learn from your competitors ;-)
