I use an old Android cell with RP ( because it is small ) to run/bike. The device is beginning to fail. Can some one recommend a solid, small Android device that is compatible with RP? Weather proof would be a plus.

Very nice to see the RP app available on Aurora Store.....another aspect of living a de-Googled life taken care of.

Hi, Jarro.

Just to let you know Android 13 brought back the issue with the album art not matching the playing track again (you had fixed it for Android 11 ). Could you perhaps look into it whenever possible?

There also the persistent RP notification popping up when rebooting problem as well, but I guess that can't be fixed?

Thank you in advance... ð

Disabled optimisation for both the RP app and Bluetooth, rebooted, but again the same result.

To troubleshoot, I completely uninstalled the RP app, played some music on Spotify, rebooted the phone, and no media controls popped up automatically, so not sure where the issue may lie...

I sort of looked into this, lots of complaints across different media apps and phone models.
Only thing I could suggest is check if the app is battery optimized, that is always worth a try. And some people have suggested also disabling the battery optimization for the bluetooth service if that is being optimized.

Thanks for the reply. Checked RP's battery optimisation and its being optimised. As for Bluetooth, I'll disable it and test...

Strange behaviour:

Whenever I reboot my phone, and right after entering my sim card PIN number, the RP notification media controls pop up automatically. This happens on several devices I own and since the latest app update. At first I thought it was maybe related to media notification handling on Android 11 and that because RP was the last media app I used before rebooting the notification just 'stuck' there, but even if I use another media app and then reboot, the RP notification will still pop up again all by itself...

Not a major issue, but strange nonetheless. I just dismiss the notification anyhow and carry on, but was wondering if it could be looked into sometime... Thanks.

I've been using the RP Android app for many years now, and very recently upgraded my phone to Android 11. The app works fine and as it should, but I cant' seem to figure out why while within the app itself album art corresponds to the currently playing track, but outside the app (like on the notification shade controls and on the lock screen) album art is always one track behind from what is actually playing.

Hope I can clarify it this way:

Say I launch the app and track 'X' starts playing; when it's over and track 'Y' kicks in, even though within the app track 'Y's' album art is being displayed correctly, on the notification shade and lock screen album 'X's' artwork still persists throughout the whole of track 'Y'.

Once 'Y' is over and track 'Z' starts playing, within the app album art will update to 'Z's' album art, but outside, track 'Y's' artwork will now be showing, and so on an so forth. Only if I stop playback will the artwork update to the correct one on the notification shade or lock screen...

I don't find this behaviour on the other music apps I've tried on Android 11, and album art is constantly updated both on the apps and on the notification shade controls, so I guess it could maybe be an issue with the way the app receives and handles track metadata?

It's not really a big deal, since the music is what's important and the app otherwise works with no hiccups, but was wondering if anyone's got a similar issue, and if the developer's could maybe look into it sometime.

Thanks is andvance!

Hello everybody,
after newest update (4.4.15.gp) streaming stops every 30min or so. Wifi is stable, it happens with the phone plugged in or not.
Restart does not help. Does somebody else sees the same thing? Cache autofill is on, one managed channel RP Main mix with length of 2 hours.

OK one more update ;) I removed all extra storage devices usb and sd and restarted RP App and set cache location and now it will download cache blocks and buffer ahead. No clue as to why but it works so I am going to leave it as is. I think I will have enough storage space without the usb and sd.

Jarro thanks for looking into this for me.

Hi, I wiped the TV box and reinstalled the firmware and now the app will see the cache locations but I can not download cache blocks, either static or auto fill. I am running out of ideas so any suggestions are welcomed.

Thanks Jarro, I have not seen any other posts about this problem so maybe it is something in my settings. I will reset to defaults or reinstall the firmware in the morning.
I will let you know if it helps.

Hi, We us the Android app on a Android TV box and it has worked well until the recent update. Now we can not download cache blocks or add auto fill channels. We can add them but nothing downloads. When I go to check cache location the App closes instantly. We are able to stream so it seems to just be a cache issue and not a connection problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Gerry

I should have mentioned the TV box has Android version 7.1.2. I have cleared the cache and uninstalled the app but on reinstall I get the same behaviour. I have also formatted the SD card as removable and as onboard storage and also removed the SD card but nothing changed the behaviour.
