1. Uninstall the app

2. Install XiiaLive v2.1.8.

3. Go to settings-> User experience and set to OFF "Media controls"

Now this means that the app as long as it's being used the media controls will be set to work with xiialive.  If the app has been inactive for 30 secs at the most it will give away media controls.  Also, what apps are you trying to control with media controls? The Android music app?

Let me know what phone and android version it's running.  Also, what are you using to control media playback?

Thanks! I really want to understand what is really going on so that I can fix it...

The current maximum buffer size is 10 seconds for devices running Android 2.2 and 30 seconds older Android versions. Yes, its definitely not big enough! :( So, we do have plans to make it bigger maybe up to 60 seconds. Besides that, we actually are thinking of some new idea, that I can't disclose now, that will most certainly resolve your issues... :)

Update 05/13/11:

XiiaLive v2.1.8 now supports a larger buffer! :)

We have someone working on this currently. It has taken time to make it stable enough to release. We hope to get at least beta support hopefully next month...

Update 05/13/11:

Update v2.1.8 has been release and support wma streaming! :) Please note it's in early beta stage :)
