MusicBee Remote (Remote Control for Android)

[find-the-pig]

I think it worked with the latest release. I updatet to 0.10 and it stoped working... Downgrading did not solve the Problem :/

 Ok you are right... I was lazy and I assumed that since the debug build worked fine the release should also work properly... I should have known better.  My fault I am checking to figure out what went wrong.... I am gonna test the next release before uploading...

--- Update ---
I am really sorry about the previous upload it was a really stupid mistake... here is a new build that should work fine...  : mbrc_plugin-v0.11.7z

--- Update II ----
Anyone who had the issue with the crashing on the DiscoveryService please tell me if this fixes the issue for you.

Hi,
thank you for your patience.

With the new plugin MusicBee isn't crashing anymore.
If the connection with the app works as fine as before the crashes started I haven't tried out yet.

[kelsos]

Glad to know. If there are any issues keep me updated.

Hello there, I made another preview build available, v0.10.0.4, this version also requires a minor plugin update v0.12 that is available on the preview folder on mediafire. Mostly the update is visual. Also the ability to clear the search results has been added.

[kelsos]

A new version has been pushed to the testing channel in Google Play Store. For those that are interested in testing but are not yet members you can join testing through the google group at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/musicbee-remote.

Keep in mind that  v0.12 of the plugin is required and  is available under the test versions category. Also both the plugin and apk are available on their respective repositories on Github.

The plan is to hit stable after one week if no major issues arise. The update will have mostly a visual redesign closer to the material design guidelines. Also adds an exit button to the drawer menu that will stop the background service and exit the application, and a floating button in search that clears the search results. Also the shuffle button with the new update should change from off/shuffle to off -> shuffle -> autodj.

The plans are to release another minor update in the near future that will include a lockscreen and homescreen widget, and afterward I will resume the work on library/playlist support. Unfortunately I don't have any ETA for library/playlist, The work is halfway done.

v.0.12 looks pretty good
Two things, I noticed:
My OnePlus One is set on a low DPI for getting everything smaller. it runs @350dpi. The standard value is 450 i guess.
I think the low DPI is the reason, why the Album Cover is cut at the top and bottom for approx. 15%. So it isn't perfect square..
That doesn't look good :/



Second thing; when LastFm scrobbling is enabled while starting the App, the Checkbox isn't enabled.
Only if you disable and enable Scrobbling via the App, the Checkbox is checked.

Carry on Your work is excellent

OK I can see the previous now.. It took a while to load probably... I have an idea but it will require some testing. I will let you know.

I forgot to set the Viewpermission for everyone in Onedrive.. So my fault^^
I'm patient

Would it be possible to add (better) support for radio streams? Right now you can only play/pause and stop radio, it would be great if you could switch between radio stations or radio and local music.

Otherwise MusicBee remote is great, sometimes a little buggy when connection, but overall I have no complaints.

[kelsos]

Radio support is on my TODO list I will check what is needed to add it.

Halliba did you test this release https://github.com/kelsos/mbrc/releases/tag/v0.10.0-rc.2 ? if not could you please tell me if the cover adjusts properly.

Also there is a specific issue I have to solve that is related to the initial state of the application.  This is probably partially caused by the plugin, I want to fix this before releasing a stable version.

[find-the-pig]

looks perfect with v0.10.0-rc.2 now
thanks
