New! DroidLive Streaming application!

Thanks for the response Jona. I didn't figure out that the highlighted station scrolled. That is very useful now I know.

I'm not sure about the inplayer scrolling either. You're probably right that as it is now is the best option. It can be a unclear when all 3 fields need scrolling, but it really isn't a major issue.
 
you are so kind. i have entered it. i find it very well.

DroidLive Blog: DroidLive Updates

About playing your own URLs... It's not the most obvious way but if you type the URL inside the search field you can than hit the search button and it will start streaming... As of now you can't give it a link to a playlist only a direct link to a station, I'm working on making this side of the app really easy, so stay put for next version :)

Soon we will have our webpage updated with more information! Like versioning logs and tutorials on how to use DroidLive...

I got a question for all of you:
*What features would you like to see on DroidLive?

Thanks,
-Jona

- Custom URL for is the most important...
- Also, more station to search from... Here, Radio-Canada has a lot of good stuff and I can't find them in the search.
- Version in the "About" Window
- I won't use it but maybe some ppl would like a Widget

Thanks again for this great app.
 
I'd like the favorites list to to show what is currently playing like the search list does.

It would be nice if you could bring up the station's web page (If it has one) and
see their program listing or at-least be able to see what the next program will
be and when it starts. I listen to a lot of old time radio dramas and it would
be nice to know when the next one starts so I can access it from the beginning.

Thanks

Chuck E.

I would like the ability to add a tag or tags to songs that are bookmarked using the tagme function. This way I can remember why I liked a particular track. For example I might mark something with "chilled", or "groovy" etc. I could then use this information when I am adding these songs to playlists in say Spotify or Last.fm.

I upgraded to the paid version recently, and I'm intrigued to know what the 'auto' on the bitrate cap control does. I assume it caps the bitrates that are allowed to be played when not on a wi-fi connection. But I'd like to know what the parameters are exactly.
 
Is there any way to purchase this app outside of Android market?
Only free apps are available in Ireland so far, and I would like to buy this one :)
 
Ok,

First, the higher the bitrate the better the radios quality will be, but also drawback is that it requires a faster internet connection.

The cap allows filtering radio stations results to the ones that will play without any problems. It can also help when your driving and can't be looking at the fine text for bitrate number.


About paid version, well I'm in the process of looking to put my app on SlideME | Android Community and Application Marketplace

I'll post once it becomes available there...

As of now it does it simply by looking if your connected to a G network, EDGE, or 3G, and according to that I figure out what should be a good rated bitrate. It is definetly not the most accurate way of doing this but it is a roughf estimate. I didn't want to do the actual accurate way since it will waste users bandwidth and battery life...
 
I have to say I like this app and joined the fourm because of this

Will u add a pause funtion as there some long prerecorded radio streams I listen to so I pause them on my and would appreciate if this can be implemented on this app.

So will you do it?

G2Droid!
Sorry I thought I replied but I guess I never did... :P

Well, the initial design we wanted to have 60 sec of pause time and if reached that than it would just start writting over it...

So as of now no plans, but I really would like to look into it once maybe Android 1.6 comes out :)

what? cant u just add pause funtion? your answe is confusing
 
:P

Sorry my head was somewhere else! No plans to support pausing at this moment. I would like to have this feature but I just don't have much time to work on it... I'm working hard on other features for DroidLive and once these are complete I'll try to get into the pause feature...

Hi:

This morning I received and update for my droidlive, I typed in a url from a radio station in Miami, FL and when I went to play it tells me that is not supported. HELP!

Thank you, and by the way great app.

I suggest you post the link so dev can look at it
 
I have a question. I've notice recently that in the taskmanager, I always see the following app running:

com.android.droidliveplayer:remote

If I force close the app, it reopens on its own, within a few moments, regardless if I'm using the app or not.
Just wondering the function of this, if its normal, and if its necesary or not?
