Jack07 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Hello, I bought poweamp to use it into my car head unit but I have a small issue. The next/prev wheel buttons work correctly when the app is showed on screen but they don't work anymore while the head unit is on launcher or showing other apps. I'm attaching the screenshot of last processed commands after pressing the next button. I've already set Poweramp as default player into system settings. I tried to install musicxmatch and using it as player the remote buttons work correctly even on the launcher. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Is that screenshot from when the app was in the foreground and the command worked, or from when it was in the background and didn't seem to work? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack07 Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 Hello the screen is from when the app was in foreground and the button worked correctly. If I press the media button when the app is playing on background and then I open the last processed commads it does not show the command I pressed. It is strange that Musicxmatch instead detects them even in background I'm not sure if it can be useful but Poeweramp reacts correctly to the launcher's gui buttons (i'm using agama car launcher ) I have already garanted "display over other apps" and "modify system settigns" app permissions Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 If PA isn't being sent the commands, it obviously cannot respond to them. If they are being picked up by Musixmatch instead, try uninstalling that and see what happens. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack07 Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 I was already trying with musixmatch unistalled, I recorded a short clip to show this behaviour. The only difference between the two player is that musixmatch app asks for the “Notification Access" permission. I can't even grant that permission to PA because it's not shown into the "notification access" app list. (I mean App & Notifications / Advanced / Special app access / Notification access. I also tried on my phone) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 @Jack07 Poweramp doesn't need notification access permission as it doesn't "Read" other apps notifications. You can check how Poweramp processes headsets (and similar, e.g. lockscreen or bluetooth) commands in Poweramp Settings / Headset/Bluetooth / Last Processed Commands. If nothing appears there when you click buttons - system doesn't send events to the app, but events can be also ignored due to some settings or due to other causes. Thanks!

Jack07 Posted July 6, 2020 Author Share Posted July 6, 2020 Is there anything else I can try to solve this issue? I've already played around with headset settings but nothing has changed. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
