Lock Screen Volume ring off-center

I know you are aware of this, but the volume ring indicator on the lock screen being off center is really unattractive. Could you add a preference to not show it at all? Keep the functionality of adjusting volume of course, just don't show the ring. I'd prefer to have the Xeno lock screen nice and clean.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Glad to hear that. Hope they fix this issue in your ROM, though!

Ah, I forgot about it! Let me add it to my todo list and fix it in some predictable future!

Actually i dont know if this is a Rom issue, at least in my case... Had the problems with any rom so far from JB to the 5.0 Preview. So dunno...
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
If it doesn't clip in Xeno with "no clip" option enabled, then it certainly is a ROM or hardware issue! Since most D/A converters these days have some spare bits to prevent clipping, it shouldn't really happen. The option is there just to be on the safe side.

How to completely reset Xenoamp config files

Hi!

I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong place, but this forum is somehow confusing...

well, my problem is that I can't completely reset Xenoamp. Something's gone bad with my local Subsonic server, so I need to completely reset anything about Xenoamp. I've deleted the directory in the home of my device but there's still some files I can't get... where are they? Which are they name? Thanks to everyone who can give me some help
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
What exactly do you need to delete and why?

How to completely reset Xenoamp config files

Thank you very much for your answer.

I would like to have my smartphone in the condition it was before I installed Xenoamp for the very first time.

Xenoamp cant' connect to my Subsonic local server and gives me a generic "Subsonic error". When I look at the log in my Subsonic server, it doesn't show the attempts of Xenoamp to connect.

I've tried uninstalling Xenoamp and deleting the configuration directory in /sdcard/ , but, when I installed Xenoamp again, it already showed me the address of my Subsonic server and the path. So I've been thinking there are some hidden files in which Xenoamp stores this information. My Subsonic server is working, I can use it regularly with my other computers.

I don't know if it's a problem of Xenoamp, but since I've already tried to reset the Subsonic server and it didn't work, I would like to completely reset Xenoamp too.

My smartphone runs Android 4.4.4

Sorry for bothering you and thank you again for your kindness.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
There's XenoAmp directory on your main storage location, you have to delete secrets.xml from there (or just the whole directory).

Before you do that, though, I would be glad if you could get a logcat for me, so I can see what's wrong with your subsonic. OR if you can't/won't/don't know how to do that - give me guest access to your subsonic (if it is on public IP), so I can check it. Because I know people do use Xeno with their Subsonic servers and you're first to complain.

Now that I'm running XenoAmp on a newer, faster and bigger device :p - new questions arise...:

Is there any way to change the default text for sharing a title? :D

Sorry if this has already been answered - I couldn't find anything here (and in the FAQ).
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
You mean the text that is used for twits/facebooks etc?
[Android Apps and Games] eventcom:
Yes, exactly :o

It would be even better if you could associate a link to Amazon/iTunes/Google Music (but I guess that would need to set up an additional db field and it's not easy to implement?...)

Probably not so difficult, I guess these services make such things easy, since they profit from it.

Really cool app but...

Sorry if this question has been answered before. The problem Ive been having is that when ever I take a certain band's music and put into the music library it always disappears after rebooting my phone, meaning I have to reselect each album and put it into the library. This hasnt happened with any of my other music, in fact I downloaded some music yesterday and it was automatically synced to my library. Can anyone help me? It would be greatly appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] reyrussia:
Love it

Good audio player!
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
I want to help you, but you have to elaborate a bit more. What exactly do you do? If you add music to your device Xeno won't automatically pick it up unless you select a proper option in prefs (either rescan on card mount or rescan on Android media scanner finished). As soon as new music is scanned into Xeno's database it will stay there... unless:

1) there's a problem writing the database to your sd card

2) you're rescanning the database while your card is actually unmounted (i.e. your device is in USB stick mode) which will cause all entries in the db to disappear after purge

So... Can you write point by point what exactly are you doing and what disappears from where?
[Android Apps and Games] Brutaful:
Ok, i selected rescan on Android Media scanner. The problem I have now is that everytime I play any song in my library it says "track not found" this has never happened to me before. I even tried reinstalling the app but I still get the same message even after waiting for all the scanning and syncing to be finished. I also tried playing music on another app and it worked perfectly fine. I also checked the FAQ just to see if I was overlooking anything, but none of the answers help me with my problem. Any ideas on what I should do?
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Are you tring to play a track from playlist, music view, file browser?

Well I'd say we would have to check the logcat, but before we do that, let's check music sources in prefs. Go to there, see if you have an entry for the directory you normally keep your music in and then do a manual rescan from toolbar (first maybe disable rescan on Android media scanner, so we are sure it doesn't interfere). If that doesn't help then you will have to capture a logcat while doing the above.
[Android Apps and Games] Brutaful:
Im not exactly sure if I did it right, but I decided to go to music sources, I then pressed the + button and went to my local files, then I went to my device directory and went to my sdcard1 files (this is where all my music is, except for a few albums). Then I pressed the Xenoamp button (like the little tutorial said to) and it went back to music sources and gave me a message saying "credentials exist, not adding". After that I did a metadata rescan and during this rescan my music started playing. After the scan, just to be sure, I played a bunch of songs and they worked fine. Now I just have to change some tags for some albums so that songs are in order. Thanks very much for your help!
[Android Apps and Games] billyboh:
Sorry for answering so late!

I've managed to finally reset Xenoamp: it was partially my fault, I had forgotten there was the automatic recovery from backup of Android on. I switched back, deleted the file you pointed me and it worked.

As you asked me, I saved before resetting both the xenoamp and the subsonic log. I didn't find anything meaningful but maybe they could be of some use for you.

Thank you again! I really like Xenoamp and I'm happy I can use it again :)

pls file containing internet radio stations

Hi,

I have a pls file that contains numerous internet radio stations. I'm unable to play it in xenoamp. I've attached the file which I've trimmed down to only 2 stations. Could you tell me what I may be doing wrong, or is xenoamp not capable of playing this kind of file?

I'm able to play the same file using xiialive app, so I know that there is nothing wrong with the file itself - but I'd like to play it in xenoamp if possible.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Hmmm... Good question, let me investigate. It looks 100% valid to me.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Well, it was simple, really. Just wrong case in your file. PLS format is defined with first letter uppercase keywords (i.e. "File", "Title", "Length"). I've updated Xeno to handle any case, maybe it won't hurt anything...
[Android Apps and Games] scarmage:
Thanks - the pls file was created by my desktop music player (xmplay).

I manually edited the file to make title, file etc to uppercase and now xenoamp (older version) is able to play it. There does seem to be a couple of other issues like it's taking a long time to buffer, and the title is not showing up in the player etc; but let me check out the updated version of Xeno once it hits the play store and play with the pls file as well, and let you know.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
If these files are transmitted with shoutcast headers xeno will read and display them. But feel free to send me the links (if they're diffetent than last), so I can test them myself.

Love the player but I have an issue that is driving me nuts. I am sure its something silly, but here it goes...

During playback, the second song in my playlist ( an mp3) shows up on screen(the album cover), but playback is not the right song. It actually plays the third song in the list (an mp4).

If I navigation to folder via Xeno, it shows the right path for the MP3, and opening the tag shows the right data.

Album art is stored in the folder with the music as a jpg.

Not sure what's going on. Permissions look the same for the files. If I play the "broken" song in another player it shows the proper art and the song plays fine.

Thoughts?

Update, it looks like if I play the file directly it works fine. My issue might be with the DJ function?
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Sure it is bogus, but I would need some more details to investigate it. Does "the second song shows up ons screen" mean that song name shows up or cover art? Could you explain step by step how you're doing it?

As far as I can understand you have such list:

song1.???

song2.mp3 ----> "shows up on screen", but doesn't play

song3.mp4 ----> is playing

How did you prepare the list? What happens if you tap songs one by one in playlist drawer? Do they play and display properly in such case? If not - what happens? Does your problem happen only when you play them in a sequence? Pasting the playlist here could also shed some light.

If I won't be able to replicate it after your explanation, we will need a logcat. Do you know how to capture it?
[Android Apps and Games] charlatan01:
Okay, let me give you the 'lay of the land'.

My music is organized in folders by artist / album. I installed Xenoamp, selected the folder for music and let it complete building the list. I then navigated to Files / Xenoroot and selected Your DJ to build a list of 100 random tracks. I hit play, and the first song in the list played fine. When it hit the second song, the album cover for the second song in the list came up, but the player was playing the THIRD song in the list.

Just to check, I hit the menu button for the song, navigated to the folder, which showed the folder I expected to see.

I just attempted to build another dj list from scratch. Using the same method, I had DJ build a list and saved it as a playlist. When trying to save the playlist, and I got an FC :( , but it saved the playlist (attached -renamed as txt file).

I usually start playback, as I did here, by tapping the name of the first song. When I tapped the first song (the Smiths Half a Person), it actually played Kanye - Gone. You will notice that I do have different file formats.. FLAC, MP3 etc.... Not sure if that is causing the issue. Nearly all of the music in my library has been tagged with MP3Tag, and I always add album art to the tag if I can, though I also save the art as "folder.jpg" for each album folder.

The album art / playing song will fall "out of sync" if that's what we can call it, when I let the player play them in sequence. As mentioned, this behavior is also seen when tapping the songs in the playlist.

I think I can pull a logcat for this when I run it. Oh, I am also running this on a Sony Z1 Compact running PAC-MAN ROM 12-15 nightly for whatever that's worth.

Thanks so much for your time.
[Android Apps and Games] charlatan01:
Here is a logcat I captured. I started playing the dj list from the first entry, The Smiths - Half A Person. The cover art came up on Xeno for The Smiths - Half a person, but the song that played was Kanye - Gone. I swiped R to L to skip to the next song, and it started playing the 4th song, Don't Stay by Linkin Park.

It did FC when I skipped ahead to Oshin (DRUNN), which is a song synced from Google Play, but the audio that plays is Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow.

It's pretty consistent, but not entirely. Sometimes it will actually play the Smiths as it should. It cannot play, for some reason, the second song in the playlist, twenty-one pilots - Trees. I have not once had it play that song in my tests with this playlist.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
I'm not fully into it yet, but first thing I see is you're using FFMpeg engine, which is experimental and probably unstable. Could you verify that the exact same happens on "normal" engine (FFMpeg unticked) before I will look any further? Btw, the FFMpeg engine will be downgraded in upcoming release because of Google's complaint about SSL version it uses... sheeesh...

I installed xeno amp a few weeks ago and had it working pretty good. Last night I tried to use it and had troubles getting it to work. I think a part of those problems might have been due to google play music. Anyway, I can not get it working properly again (I have tried searching this thread but the search is not working for me). I have uninstalled/installed it about a half dozen times, still no go.

I keep getting a "purging database" message everytime I try to play a song. And, I also get a "could not obtain a path to media" message. Sometimes I will get it to play a song or two, but then it won't play other songs.

I use Google play music (cloud) as my source. My device is the new Motorola droid turbo (not rootable).

Thx, for any help you can give me.

Frank

I have pressed on the Google play path and sync and am at my wits end over this.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Hi, I've seen some FCs regarding google play lately, might be they've changed their API again. Do you know how to logcat? If yes, could you send me a logcat of the crash? I'll try to check it myself but just in case it works well on my device...

EDIT: I will definitely need a logcat, because I've just tried my MASSIVE google play library (ABBA Gold album, that is) and it played without a problem. (Thank you for the music!)
[Android Apps and Games] gimpy1:
Thx, for replying. I don't know how to logcat. I read up and Googled it. Everything I read said that, with Kit Kat, you need to be rooted to get one, which this phone is not.

But, I turned XenoAmp on today to try to get it going again. All I did was open XenoAmp and try playing a song. The same message appeared, "purging database". Then it started going thru and showing the percentages.

The other message, "could not obtain a path to media", never appeared this time.

Everything started working properly, the songs played as they should. I have turned the app on several times today, and it has played properly everytime. Except for that one message, purging database, neither message has reappeared today.

So, I guess all is good for now? No idea what caused the problems. No idea what fixed them ?, but, all is good for now.

Again Thx, I appreciate your help and, your XenoAmp ??
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Nope, it's not good if it is saying "purge" all the time. It means some synchronization failed and Xeno is trying to restart it each time, which results in another fail. I would be very grateful for this logcat, as such behaviour is certainly bad! What synchronizers do you have? Local files and google music? Maybe it's Google Music failing...

Sometimes you can use an app to get a logcat. Try CatLog or aLogCat... If not, see: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1378491

I thought I can change the cover of the track by long tap on the main screen to bring the menu but there was no context menu.

I might add it there, but to change cover you have to long click in Music view. Might be helpful, thought if you could tell me more about what album was wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] Nour Sherif:
Ok, I have 4 tracks in a directory each two have the same cover, I expect to see 2 tracks with a cover and the other 2 with another cover, the problem is that the 4 tracks appear with the same cover of the 2, I cleared the covers cache, when regenerated, the 4 track appeared with the same other cover!

in Music view I can't change cover for individual track, the cover is already in the track tags, but XenoAmp doesn't detect it and it just fetches from Internet, I also have the cover on sdcard but the is no options for where I can select the cover
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Hmmm... Can't really find the error, I'll add some more logging to next version, send me the logcat then!

Let me explain - cover is stored in cache by albumname-albumartist hash, so each track that has exactly same albumartist and album name will get same cover (and you CAN'T have different cover for tracks that share album and albumartist). If the tracks differ by any of the tags you SHOULD be able to change their cover, there's no reason you wouldn't. If your tracks get the same artwork it might be due to you having a cover file (cover|folder|album|thumb|albumartsmall|albumart.jpg|png) in the specified directory. Can you check that with some other browser (xeno shows only audio files).
