It isn't supposed to work with FCC.

I wrote on the release note "initial support for FCC"

I did the changes that SpeedFire told me to do to make it recognize as a player by FCC but I had your same results.

I sent him a PM asking to cooperate to make it work.

I beleive that there is a conflict because FCC handle by itself the MTC radio but I really have no idea what is going on with his launcher.

All I can say is that media buttons and metadatas are working perfectly fine with Agama and Ubiquity widget.
[MTCD Software Development] Tbizzness:
Navradio also works perfectly well with Car Launcher Pro on PX6 android 9. FCC is funny with a few apps. I've had several problems with it so I uninstalled and went back to what I always use.
[MTCD Software Development] okij:
Hm, I still don't see today's beta on Play Store although I subscribed on your beta channel as you told me. I hope to be able to try it tomorrow, but from [MENTION=9549004]AdekP[/MENTION]'s feedback it's already clear that it won't work well on the current version of FCC Launcher.

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]: Now that KoTiX2 has done his part of making NavRadio+ compatible with FCC Launcher, could you please implement the needed workaround as you wrote here on your thread:

Thanks in advance! :highfive:

İ was using older releases without any problem but in current releases whenever i try to open navradio+ it says Stopped Working and closes. I tried reinstalling but nothing changed.

I have MTCD PX 5 Android 6 Malaysk rom and i m a paid customer. What should i do?
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I need more informations please:

- please explain better, after a fresh install, when exactly it crash

- possibly make a video of the first start after a fresh install

- If you have root access please install a logcat app, save the logcat and send it to me.

Be sure you haven't set any particular settings in malaysk rom that prevent navradio to run like settings apps that cannot start after sleep or apps that cannot work togheter.

tnx.

Hal9k 4.0.2 HAL screensaver doesn't work well for me either!

It does not always show the RADIO LOGO and RDS name.

Trouble starts when I close Navradio + and music (or video) starts playing. (Attached video: 9 sec)

Then even if you start Navradio +, there is no Logo and RDS display on the HAL screensaver. (Video sec 18 sec)

Press the following channel button on the steering wheel: Video: 27 sec

The solution: STOP MOD service (Video: 1 min 07 sec)

And the HAL screensaver works again. (Video: 1 min 23 sec)

(But it also needed the button for the next channel)

Would a good solution be for Navradio + to restart mod service?

[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Me and other guys already asked to [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] to integrate support to NavRadio in his FCC Launcher but we did not have nay reply from him yet.

With this v1.58 update NavRadio is recognized by FCC as a music player as requested by his developer but unfortunately because of conflict with original radio app, FCC cause NavRadio to restart continuosly.

I can't do nothing about it, the problem is on FCC side.

Hello guys,

anyone an idea, why Car Launcher for example can read out RDS Text and stuff like that, but Tasker can't?

Must use autonotification (to read out the notification), but it not my favorite solution. Searched a lot, but can't find a solution.

Tried AutoTools Media State. But it won't react. For al other apps its no problem.

I am using Navradio+ with FCC as Launcher, on an Eonon p5x head Unit.

#1 Thanks to both developers for working together to get this great Radio APP working well in FCC.

A couple of possible Bugs in NavRadio+, that have nothing to do with FCC.

(1) When FAV is selected, the station Logos cannot be set/changed.

(2) Then selecting Notification mode, and changing anything on that menus screen, navradio+ adopts not the current setting, but instead, the previous setting -- ie the setting selected is delayed one setting change.

This has the effect say, of when turning on/off notifications, that its not the current setting that takes effect, but the one that as in place before the setting was changed.

Net result, turning on/off Notifications is reversed.

The other weird effect I see when using NavRadio+ with FCC is to do with the notification messages that would appear to being sent out to other apps from navRadio+, specifically the RDS information.

When Viewing navRadio+ in full screen, the RDS information typically appears as a line of text (multiple words) .. but FCC is displaying this Information, one word at a time, with about a 2 second delay between words, and then goes on to repeat, and repeat this process.

Maybe navRadio+ could have a Notification option to send the WHOLE RDS text in one go, and a delay option, to set how often it is sent.

Typically for FCC it needs to send the whole RDS text ONCE, when the radio station is changed -0r when the RDS information changes (ie new song, if current song is sent in RDS)

Note: FCC will scroll a long RDS message, and keep scrolling it.

see Video ====> FCC-Navradio_Notification_issue.mp4

UPDATE:

This seems to have been fixed on or around 5/30/2020 -- RDS text is no longer being broken up into parts, as displayed in FCC/

FCC seems to now correctly display the whole line of text in one go :)

Frequency indicator

[MENTION=2734955]KoTiX2[/MENTION]: Could you please add an option to make the frequency indicator wider?

Currently it is fixed at 1 pixel width, but unfortunately the frequency indicator can barely be seen in bright sunlight. Besides this, the frequency indicator in the NavRadio+ logo is wider, so it looks different than in the app itself. ;)

It would be good to have an option to set its with to 1, 3, 5 or 7 pixels, please see attached screenshots.

Also I would like to have an option to set the colour of the frequency indicator, if this shouldn't be already there (I'm not sure if I have seen one).

[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
1. I can assign logo to fav stations without problem. Are you sure of it?

2. Ok, I will check it.

Let me explain how things work with rds and metadata...

NavRadio receive from fm broadcast 3 RDS elements: ID, station name, message Text.

Each time one of these items change NavRadio send a new metadata information set that include the logo, the name and text. the text is sent as it is in one single string format is not trimmed in parts.

Depending on the country you live and the fm station itself things may vary and can be mixed up.

In Poland for example the message text string is not used at all and all the messages are sent within the station name, displaying alternatively some words, the name etc..

For this purpose there is the liveRDS option in settings/radio. With this option enabled the metadata is sent only the first time that the frequency change, other wise we have too many messages sent out.

If your country/stations use the liveRDS is better to enable it in the settings.

I saw on you videos that some stations use even a mixed way of liveRDS bit with message text too.

It's weird for me seeing station name part changing continuously to show one message and having the RDS text too.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Ok I write it down on my to do list.

With next release is coming a new way to customize the station buttons background color, transparency and accentcolor.

The freq indicator color is not changeable now, I'll if I can add it too.

Many thanks for taking the time for that explanation. -- Makes things clearer to me. :good:

As far as the FAV logo updates are concerned, maybe it's my Maryland Logos. ? I attached them to a previous post here today. maybe you can check them out, and also see why they may be causing NavRadio+ to crash when they are selected.

ALL of then do now - initially they loaded fine.

The one I originally sent (the non-buttonized 250 x 250 ) "did" work, until I told Navradio+ to delete all the logos, because I had made the Buttonized ones, which look better.

But they would not load -- Navradio+ crashed when "any" were selected.

So I made them smaller ( 250 x 250 original ones), and resized them down to 200 x 200. Still would not work.

Then when i went back to the original non-buttonized ones, and NavRadio+ would not now accept those either.

Even uninstalled NavRadio+. re-booted -- re-installed, and still wont load

So it does not make any sense to me, and without running the App in Android Studio (or whatever) I cannot tell why . Hopefully you can

---------- Post added at 18:44 ---------- Previous post was at 18:29 ----------

I beg to differ.

FCC (as a WIDGET BASED LAUNCHER) is in constant development as it is updated to interface to additional and changing APP.

Some of these additional apps have issues with FCC, for whatever reason, (FCC or the APP)

However, the FCC developer works very hard and long hours to sort these issues out so his Launcher will work with most Apps.

But NavRadio+ is unfortunately also not 100% Stable, as it does have crashing issues,( at least on some head units it is designed to run on) even if run without FCC.

So why would you want to tell EITHER developers not to work to fix these issue, when both seem prepared to do so ??

If YOU are happy with the current Version .. Fine .. keep using it, but please don't try to persuade the developers not to improve their Apps !!!!

TIP: (for you) .. save the current version you are happy with (or export it) -- then if you find that an Update is not what you want, you can easily go back to that earlier version that satisfied you.

Actually, keeping older version is always a good practice with Most Android Apps that are in development, just in case "The latest is not the greatest" !!
[MTCD Software Development] Scopesys:
[MENTION=2734955]KoTiX2[/MENTION]

I have figured out the LOGO issue.

When selecting a LOGO, one "could" browse to anywhere where one has put logos, but NavRadio+ will only actually successfully LOAD a logo from the one NavRadio+ Default Directory (The one where it puts Logos that Navradio+ can download )

Not obvious till one knows the rules :)

Anyway, those Maryland (Local Baltimore) logos load fine.

I must have done it right the 1st time, but when I made the new Buttonized versions, I had not put them in that correct Directory.
[MTCD Software Development] themissionimpossible:
I beg to differ...;)

I'm using NavRadio+ since last January with my android 9 stock ROM and Agama Launcher and never had a crash!

Maybe there are some minor glitches but absolutely no crashes.

So the crash problems very likely lie in the FCC launcher (that unfortunately has actually some problems by itself) or possibly in a modified ROM (as everyone knows, also Hal9k's latest ROM has some bugs by itself...)

So IMHO it's not absolutely fair to ask KoTiX2 to solve problems that others should solve first, for example the coexistence with the FCC's direct HU radio module management in its widget... or the need for the apps to simulate a media player... for better compatibility with third party radio apps, FCC please let it alone or let user completely disable it!
[MTCD Software Development] Scopesys:
All good points.

Yes, 100%, if the default radio is used in conjunction with NavRadio+, then things gets messed up for both of them.

In fact if any other programs/apps mess with the Radio hardware/software, when navradio+ is meant to be controlling it, it leads to problems.

Navradio+ works fine with many launchers, but currently has problems with FCC.

Maybe this is why.

Most other launchers only run Navradio+ in Full screen mode, and the user controls the functionality of the radio through navradio+ is in full screen, directly controlled by the app.

FCC is a WIDGET based launcher, Typically it controls navradio+ and hence the radio through a widget.

This seems to be where problems are arising -- widget control of NavRadio+

When one installs NavRadio+ that it comes with 2 NavRadio+ widget ??

Those widgets seem to be able to reliably control the App, then there is little reason why FCC cannot do the same, once that (NavRadio+) method of control is figured out by the FCC developer. (Seems these is some question about that method of widget control, wrt being the standard methods)

I believe that this is what is currently taking place - the two developers are talking to each other, exchanging information, with the goal of a win-win result for BOTH Apps.

I also do not think you need to be concerned or worried about navradio+ getting "messed up" in an attempt to make it work with FCC. Quite the reverse, as I think it more likely that FCC will be the one to get changed, to work with, and match navradio+s Widget methods of Controlling the App - but that is totally up to the two developers to agree upon.

The FCC developer has an uphill battle -- his VERY COMPLEX App has to interface & work with a Multitude of other Apps, which are often themselves in a constant state of change & development. Very often the "Buck stops" with the FCC developer, and FCC is not considered by users "to be working correctly", until BOTH the FCC and the programs it is controlling by widgets, are BOTH working correctly.

Even the basic Android Widget system is not without its shortcomings and odd quirks

As a Sofware Developer myself, I can tell you, talking to other Developers is often far more rewarding and informative, that talking to end users.

Developers talk the same language :highfive:. so maybe this communications about their Apps, is something that BOTH developers are finding rewarding.

I installed latest update but app continuously crashing. I sent crash logs in my previous post. I'm using Nova Launcher. (If it's important)

-I updated Navradio+ from Google play.

-Tried to open Navradio+. Radio started to play but a message like this "App crashed and it will be closed" appeared.

-When I click OK button gui disappeared but radio continue to play. (I can see a radio frequency notification about Navradio+)

-If I click the NavRadio+ notification => Gui opened, but crash message "App crashed and it will be closed" again appeared.

-I clicked OK button and closed the NavRadio+ notification.

-Rebooted my device.

-Tried to open NavRadio+ and same things happen.

-After after the application has crashed many times and i opened again. After sometime app stopped crashing and I can use it without any problem.

But after every reboot I face these problems. It's unusable for me.

Not: I couldn't find any setting about prevent NavRadio+ app start in Malaysk rom. (As I said in my previous posts older versions was working without any problem in my device.)

Firmware radio replacement

Hello,

Is there any way to replace firmware radio by Navradio? My unit works on Malaysk Px5 Pie Rom and there is bunch of radio mods but none of them is good enough and cause conflict in my everyday use.

I'd like to get rid of firmware radio and assign hardware button "radio" to NavRadio.

Hello I bought the app and I liked it very much. I think it would be great if you do the updates I wrote below.

1- We should be able to change the order of drag and drop registered radio stations

2- It is good if there is search text when choosing logo

3- When we press the arrow button, it is very good if it searches for a station

4- Can you desighn a widget like original radio widget
[MTCD Software Development] Scopesys:
+1 to suggestion #1.

If one does a "Scan", then the radio station found are put into presets in Frequency order.

IF one then adds another station, it is put at the end of the list.

In an ideal world.

(a) One would be able to DRAG the presets to manually set the order.

(b) There would be a settings option to SORT the presets by Frequency. (or always keep them sorted)

As far as Logo are concerned , and option to name the Radio station by the Logos's file name, when editing a preset.

ie if the logo had a filename "122.80 WRSW The Bay"(.png), that would be displayed when the Preset was being edited, with a "Click option" to name the Radio Station to that.

(then could obviously be edit later at any time)

While this might not be so useful for existing LOGOs, going forward, it would make Editing the Presets a lot quicker & easier.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Hi,

1. Right now you can change order only in edit window. Drag and Drop will require to remove the edit window from longclick action and set a dedicated button for it. I'm not totally sure if I want to do it. Consider also that this cannot be applied to fav list anyway.

2. If you use the gallery to browse your logos you have the search button. If you don't have gallery installed you can get it from playstore.

3. Long press on the arrow does the station search

4. Original radio widget of which launcher? Android 8? 9? Dasaita? Or??

So according to themissionimpossible i switched off the firmware radio and it does no longer cause conflicts nor disturb and hardware (physical) button does nothing. Is there a way to assign it to navradio+ in Android 9 on Malay rom? Key Study option does not let me choose app.
[MTCD Software Development] okij:
I asked for sorting of the fav list before and you gave me a similar answer.

Still I cannot see why the lists shouldn't be editable, so the user can set his own preferred order.

E.g. the local stations where I live are named WDR1 (respectively 1live), WDR2, ..., WDR5, but their frequencies are not in this order, so my fav list is quite mixed up.

Other users might prefer their favourite station to be #1, their 2nd favourite to be #2 and so on.

Sorting (or assigning) the favourites AFAIK is possible with all stock radio apps and also with all OEM radios in the cars, so this is something that should work in NavRadio+ too. :)

So IMHO your answer shouldn't be "this cannot be applied to fav list anyway", but "it's a bit (or a lot) of programming work, but basically possible, I'll put it on my todo list." ;)

So +1 again for this wish. :)
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Of course everything can be done but it's not quite easy.

The FAV list is made of favorite stations of both FM and AM lists mixed. If we change order in fav we will have to change it in fm or am list depending on which one you move.

The problem is that it is not easy to calculate the position where you are moving an item because the index in FAV list is different from the fm or am one.

If all stations in fav list are only fm then it's same thing of sorting the fm list.(the same for only am stations).

A solution could be to have fav list for am and one fav list for fm. Not mixed.

Right now,If you want to move something in FAV list right now you can simply move it in FM or AM lists and FAV list will be automatically updated and sorted with the new positions.
