wingman Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Hi Keep coming up against this issue which is especially annoying as I listen to a lot of podcasts. Basically everytime I pause, change focus/window then come back to Poweramp, the app keeps returning to a default track and i have to re-open the track i'd paused. Checked settings and can't see anything odd. Anyone else gave this issue? I'm on latest paid version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 What sort of default track? If you pause (or even if you reboot your phone) PA is meant to remember the track and position where it last left off. Andre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingman Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 Iow when it loses focus after switching windows it always plays the same music track when switching back. The file ir girgets is just a downloaded mp3 file not within the Poweramp library. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Sounds like you are not reopening poweramp via task switching, or the main apps list icon, but using a shortcut to a specific playlist instead. Andre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingman Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 App opened via file association to open Poweramp set for .mp3 in android 📂 . App left open. Switch windows a few times, return to paused track, focus is lost and a different track (always same one) starts playing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 If you launch PA via file association from another file explorer app, that could be the reason as it is just a one-off transient file, it does not link to the normal listening Library and thus has no matching database entry. Try starting your music via PA's regular music Library. I expect the song which keeps starting for you will be the first item in PA's 'All Songs' category.
