Android Auto disable << goes back to first track

[Digerati]

Using build-901-uni

Not sure if this option already exists, but when I press < twice on my steering wheel it goes back to the first song in the list when using Android Auto.  I sometimes want to go back a few tracks quickly without having to press < slowly.

I tried it with a Bluetooth and it works fine, only going back one track at a time no matter how fast I press <.

Thanks.

There are some button response controls in Settings > Headset/Bluetooth - I use double-click on the 'next' or 'prev' buttons for changing Category (album, folder, etc) for example.

But it might also be the headunit itself that is creating different keypress events for double-clicks. Have a look in Settings > Headset/Bluetooth > Last Processed Commands to see what button events the Android Auto device is sending to Poweramp.

Thanks for the info.

I have "double/triple for next/preview track." set for both wired and bluetooth.

I just did a test pressing back back on my steering wheel in android auto and it went back to track 1.  I have attached screenshots and copied the commands below: 

Sorry for the red tint, that's due to the Twilight app.

Odd, the double-press action should go back to the previous category ("PREVIOUS_IN_CAT") not to the first song in the current category. It's the equivalent of using the "<<<" button (prev category) versus "<<" (previous track).
