A long time ago, I ask for a feature to ignore BT commands for the first few seconds after connection. I received no responces to this request.
-
Me too!

See this website for a fix:>you can mount network locations natively to the Android filesystem
This is NOT a good solution for many reasons. The most important: it does not work for not english characters (e.g. french, Portuguese, or spanish characters with accents).
" CIFS Mount" will break any folder of file including not basic engish characters. It will simply be useless. This is not a solution at all.
-
See this site for Non-English characters:BTW, the hack of mounting (Cifs) a network location is not good for many reasons.
Besides, it does not work in most not-english cases. "Cifs Mount" does not like characters with accents. E.g. á é í ó ú, etc. (any accent, from anywhere but USA) .

So lets remove a feature that some people can use, because others can't? Or tell them not to do it because you can't????
-
They had it and removed it, not sure why???
-
You could do this when Poweramp came out, but they removed the feature. Not sure why.
-
This is not an Android issue. When Poweramp first came out, I was doing it all the time, but for some reason, the Poweramp people decided to remove it. (I think they said something about people finding it hard to find their file)
-
They had it foir a time, but then for some reason, removed it. They never said why, they just disabled it. I guess too many people had issues with a "real" directory requestor.
-
-
This used to work just fine, but for some reason they broke the library directory requester. All they really need to do is put the old requester back. Never figure out why why they released the broken one to start with.
-
How are you getting Poweramp to "see" the share "directory"???</p>... I regularly connect to a (cifs) music share at home to play my music via Poweramp. ...

There are plans to add DNLA support, which does almost the same, but doesn't require such scanning and works better with various AV equipment.
I've used DLNA devices, and none work well as music players. Just give us back an option to show all directories, please.
-
Mounting via CIFS is not an option. Just imagine the time it would take each time to scan a 300 GB music library, that's just ridiculous.
SMB browsing needs to eliminate all pre-scanning and needs to operate like a file browser only scanning the folder that is currently open (without subfolders).
Sure it's an option. At one point Poweramp had a full directory requestor, and I did this all the time. Then they changed it to filter most directories for people that don't understand computers. I just wish they add the options back to remove the stinking filter!
-
... when you hit the end of the list, stop. ...
Why should it stop. Shouldn't it rebuild a new list, and go right on playing?
-
I just noticed that his new directory requester limits what you can select. He knows about this, and plans to fix it. You can still get around it, but you'll need to be careful where you put your "mount Point" for now. Your mount point needs to look like a SDcard location for now.
I'm OK, as I never changed my path. (you just can't select it for now)
-
You can do it know if your device has CIFS (SAMBA) support. Get a CIFS program and mount the directory, then point Poweramp at it. I do this with my tablet at home.
-
I "think" play list go thru the ID3 tag, not path. (no even 75% sure of that, though.I have a feeling I will have to re-edit or re-create all my playlists.
-
I've obviously missed something, but what has TV got to do with an audio player?
Andre
Most TV's I've owned have speakers. And the screen is much easier to read, than most phones.
-
+1, it needs something VERY bad!!! But then I plan on getting one of the "new" Google TVs, if they ever start shipping them!
-
I'd like to see an option for a slight delay when you get a Bluetooth re-connect. The Bluetooth in my car radio has always been wacky (with all phones) and I like to add a short delay (.5 to 1 second) after the Bluetooth is reestablished to let the radio behave better.
-
+1 from me!!!
-
I agree, I can't hear my music very well with the small fonts!
Just kidding. Yes, it would be nice to have larger buttons and larger text for car mode.
Often skips to next track after car stereo returns to Bluetooth music playback

I'm 99% sure this is a Android issue, even though 4.3 was certified by the Bluetooth group. I've had (Alpine radio) and heard about the same issue with just about all BT devices since 4.x came out. (I'm currently using a "plain Jane" Note 3 w/4.3, but my bionic did the same thing after I went to 4.x)) I think the car radio makers assume you'll have a eyefone, so only test with that.
To me, it's really a pain, as I listen to Audio books with Poweramp, and some of their tracks are an 1hour plus!!!
I've ask that some kind of delay be added to Poweramp before it "listens" to BT commands, but as always, all I get are deaf ears. (Connect to BT, Wait 2 seconds (user adjustable) while receiving BT (FF/REV only?) and confirming commands but doing nothing with them, dump all received BT commands, start paying attention to BT commands, QED)
