andrewilley Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 The easiest thing would be to clear the log, then do the BT connection or whatever action causes the issue. Not so much in the log to wade through that way. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewilley Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 @Donnie1490 Your headunit is sending Repeat and Shuffle commands during the BT connection process: Poweramp is responding correctly to those commands and adjusting the modes as instructed. We don't know why Android 14 is passing these commands on when previous versions did not, but the latest release of Poweramp (e.g. build 981) include an option to attempt to ignore these command when they are not wanted. See Settings=>Headset/Bluetooth=>Ignore Repeat/Shuffle. This workaround will be improved further in future releases, as some instances of these commands still seem to be getting through.

mporcas Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 As I mentioned, I'm still having this issue, so decided to do a little test this morning. When I arrived at work I decided to cycle through the repeat and shuffle buttons on my head unit just to see what happens. I should note that I'm only having issues with Repeat, Shuffle behaves properly. Not sure why that may be. Here's the log from the moment I arrived at work: ================== 07:39:11.996 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=1 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:17.666 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=2 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:22.015 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=1 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:24.028 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=2 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:26.386 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=0 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:26.822 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=2 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:31.534 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=1 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:33.353 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=2 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:35.773 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=0 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:36.061 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetRepeatMode repeatMode=2 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:52.923 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetShuffleMode shuffleMode=1 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:54.386 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetShuffleMode shuffleMode=0 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:57.101 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetShuffleMode shuffleMode=1 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:39:58.909 PSMediaSessionHelper.Callback onSetShuffleMode shuffleMode=0 com.google.android.bluetooth ================== 07:40:06.167 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PAUSE ACTION_DOWN name=Virtual source=0x0 sources=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=476008964 sourcePak=com.google.android.bluetooth A2dpOn isAvrcp flags=0x0 playerState=1 ================== 07:40:06.406 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PAUSE ACTION_UP name=Virtual source=0x0 sources=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=476009016 sourcePak=com.google.android.bluetooth A2dpOn isAvrcp flags=0x0 playerState=1 ================== 07:40:06.421 PlayerService PAUSE from PSMediaButtonReceiver pausePlaying ================== 07:40:06.590 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PAUSE ACTION_DOWN name=Virtual source=0x0 sources=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=476009386 sourcePak=com.google.android.bluetooth A2dpOn isAvrcp flags=0x0 playerState=2 ================== 07:40:06.648 PSMediaButtonReceiver android.intent.action.MEDIA_BUTTON KEYCODE_MEDIA_PAUSE ACTION_UP name=Virtual source=0x0 sources=0x301 virt=true repeat=0 actionTime=476009445 sourcePak=com.google.android.bluetooth A2dpOn isAvrcp flags=0x0 playerState=2 ================== 07:40:10.022 HeadsetPlugReceiver headset event disconnection BT=false am mode=0 no_keep_notif_on_dscn=false ================== 07:40:10.024 BTReceiver headset event disconnection BT=true am mode=0 Ford Audio no_keep_notif_on_dscn=false ================== 07:40:11.076 PlayerService onRoutingChanged newDevice=speaker oldDevice=bt ================== 07:40:11.076 PlayerService reloadPipeline allowPlaying=false forceResume=false state after reload=2 It does appear as though there's an extra command being processed by PA around half a second after the setting is changed to 'repeatMode=0', (either via the head unit or in PA). I can't believe that all these various head units (multiple makes of cars at that!) are suddenly sending these additional signals, especially when I know my head unit has not been updated since I've had it. It also only seems to be happening on Android 14, and only since the day of upgrading in my case, so it has to be something in the OS causing the issue. Could it be the case that the Google/Android Bluetooth API is sending a confirmation signal to the head unit incorrectly which is triggering a change of state at the head unit end, triggering a further Bluetooth command to come through to PA??? Looking forward to the next beta, with the improvements to ignoring the repeat/shuffle commands. Thanks, Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 I agree. I think this is probably an Android issue, not a car/headunit issue. I have a Mazda 3 Neo 2013. I wonder if Max could upstream this issue to Google and work with them for a fix instead of trying to work around the issue in Poweramp and leaving the problem in Android.

Donnie1490 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 The workaround I found is making sure Poweramp is closed out of your recent apps before you connect to your car bluetooth. If it's in your recent apps and you reconnect to BT, it'll throw your shuffle off. I'm on the latest version, no beta. I've tested it multiple times.

BriD55 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 (edited) Using: build-981-uni Full Version - 64 bit Hello. First post here. I love Poweramp! I do not really like Shuffle so much though. I am having the same issue. As of late 2023, my 2017 Subaru Forester's head unit started changing my shuffle and repeat settings on my Galaxy S23 whenever the BlueTooth was connected. I emailed Poweramp support and they were very helpful, sending me a link to update the main trial app. I updated the app. And I made sure to turn on the Ignore Repeat/Shuffle commands in Settings. The issue still occurred. We just got a new/used car, a 2018 Subaru Forester, and the same issue is occurring. At first I thought it was either the car's head unit OR Poweramp itself. But thanks to the helpful posters here it sure seems like this issue is related to an update on the phone in late 2023. As soon as I read more about it, that checked out. The problem never occurred before that update when using Poweramp on this phone and my previous phone across several cars. For the 2017 car I would have all Shuffle "OFF" and the Repeat setting is "Straight Line w/Arrow head" ---> (Jump to next category). In the other car, my Shuffle AND Repeat settings would change when the BlueTooth connected to the car: Shuffle would turn from OFF to ON (first setting: "crossed bent arrows" Shuffle All Songs). And Repeat would change from "straight arrow" (Jump to next category) to "2 bent arrows" (Jump to the first song in a category). But... now I see that the newer 2018 car will only change the Repeat setting (as above) and leave the Shuffle alone when the BT connects. Whew... one down... this is more tolerable but still a pain. At least the Shuffle is not turning on (so far...) I can see it happening in real time when I connect the BlueTooth in the car. My preferred phone Pwrmp app Repeat/Shuffle settings are all just where I like them from my last playback session... and then... as soon as the connection is made with the car, the Repeat icon on the phone changes right before my eyes. Hope that a future update on the phone may help. Or on Poweramp. Please let me know any other tips, tricks, new information if possible. Here are Last Processed Commands after my latest try in the car (Ignore Repeat/Shuffle is on in Settings😞 Edited May 8 by BriD55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 @BriD55 Your phone has presumably been updated to Android 14, which is what will have caused the problem (see earlier messages in this thread). We still don't know why Android has only now started passing on these commands from car head units, but Poweramp is just following the instructions it receives. Max thought he'd solved it with the 'Ignore Repeat/Shuffle' option, but some do still seem to getting through (it's hard to test every situation as it only affects certain devices connecting to certain car head units). It should be further addressed in the next release of Poweramp though, whenever that occurs. Or maybe Google/Samsung will correct the issue from their end, as it only started happening with Android 14. Andre Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sorosch Posted Thursday at 02:00 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:00 PM Hello, I had already posted the problem some time ago - I have recently noticed the following: The shuffle problem only occurs when Poweramp automatically connects to the car via Bluetooth. If no automatic connecture is done, the shuffle mode is not activated - everything works as it should. Does this possibly be related to the automatic connecting? Thank you very much George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted Thursday at 03:13 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:13 PM @sorosch Yes, this thread is discussing that exact issue. It only happens on Android 14 devices, and only with certain car headunits when they connect to phones via Bluetooth (including some Android Auto connections, which often use BT for their audio component). For some reason Android 14 has started passing on Repeat/Shuffle configuration commands in these circumstances (see logs above). Max has already coded some additional workarounds for the new 'Ignore Repeat/Shuffle' option, which will be included in the next Poweramp release. There hasn't been a maintenance/bugfix build released since 981, so I assume we're waiting for the next feature update to be released to beta.
