Poweramp Build 818

Samsungs @ Pie and Hi-Res output:
For wired 3.5 it works this way:
- DVC works only via Hi-Res output for standard resolution (16bit/48khz)
- Hi-Res sample frequencies (>48khz) works via Hi-Res output, but without DVC
- normal outputs DVC is completely broken in ROM - makes normal outputs not usable on Samsung Pie variant (actually this is tested by Google Compatibility tests, so that's weird)

 Bluetooth/USB: it works fine with Hi-Res sample frequencies (>48khz) and DVC.

Basically this means you always use Hi-Res output plugin in Poweramp, it just plays standard resolution (with DVC) or Hi-Res (with DVC for BT/USB, no DVC for wired 3.5).

This build has fixed the 3rd party skins not staying applied after closing android auto on my phone where PA was the media player in AA.

It is not showing reliably a notification when enabled both in settings or within PA. When it shows then I can't close notification using little x this is enabled from within PA. Am I the only one reporting/seeing this when using PA under final Pie?

Album art all sorted. Thanks ever so much.

Hi. Great to have Android Auto but......i hear no sound over Bluetooth in AndroidAuto mode.

Other Apps like Spotify are working ok

(Resolved?)

 

In both builds 817 and 818, any artist tag that has a forward slash in the text field '/' is now gone as well as any text after it.  For example, I have all my tags with featured artists set as:

Queens of the stone age f/Mark Lanegan

In builds 817+ it now reads as

Queens of the stone age f

 

This happens for all tracks with this in the field, and I have done multiple full rescans.  I believe the forward slash is being read as an operator somewhere.

Edited January 24 by CHRCTRLMT
after a reboot, and another full re-scan, this seems to be resolved in 818. Disregard.

Could you test and try to change one of the "/" to "//" ? If it's a special character this might help.

Forward slash should not be treated as a separator in any tags now. And in tags which can have multiple entries (such as Artist, Genre, etc) the separator should be "//" or ";". 

I have many Artist tags with "/" character in them in build 818 after a Full Rescan.

@maxmp Thank you again for the official Android Auto support, fantastic!

 

I have one issue though (this includes the previous v3 version too (latest stable)) on Oreo and Pie. In earlier versions and/or earlier android versions (Nougat and lower) there was an option to do "nothing" on short focus loss (e.g notifications, GPS navigation etc.). Currently I can pause the music or choose the option to lower the volume. Both are annoying for me. I set the navigation to a lower volume and it was perfectly mix onto the music. Could you bring back the old option or is this limited by the android system?

Android Auto: I also don't hear audio from my car, but instead hear it from my earpiece on my phone. Other players work fine in AA. I'm excited to see you're getting close to getting AA working!
