AVRCP Music Player

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knew the best music player out there that supported the AVRCP profile. It seems like the stock music player doesn't support it. My Pioneer radio has buttons that should allow me to control the music from my phone from those buttons, but it doesn't work. I remember that it worked with RockOn, but it has been REALLY slow lately.
Any other recommendations?
Thanks.

Froyo AVRCP Follies

I am currently running stock FRF91 and am experiencing a very frustrating issue after upgrading to Froyo.
Prior to the upgrade when using a bluetooth headset, the foreground audio app claimed control of AVRCP and kept control, even when running in the background, until a different app was brought to the foreground. For example, if I wanted to listen to an audio book using the Ambling Audiobook player, I'd launch the player hit play on my headset and it would play. I could pause it with the headset and resume while the app was in the background or the device locked. If I wanted to listen to music, I'd be able to launch Mixzing or any other program and while it was in the foreground, hit play on the headset and the new app would have control of the headset and behave in the same manner as Ambling. This is how things are supposed to work.
Since upgrading to Froyo, the default media player grabs a hold of AVRCP and and will not release control. It doesn't matter what app is in the foreground. When I hit play on my headset, the default player launches. However, once it launched Google Listen and on another occasion Mixzing. I have not be able to replicate that behavior however. It does consistently launch the default player, except for the those two exceptions.
I am using a Jabra BT3030.
Any thoughts? This is really starting to annoy me.

confirmed with my phone too.

Of course what makes the behavior really weird are the two times where the default player did not retain control. However, as I said I've not been able to duplicate that.

[Q] How to stop mic button from starting media player?

I did several searches, but was unable to find an answer to this. I hope one of you can enlighten me
I recently installed the "Listen" app to listen to podcasts. When i plug in the stock headphones that come with the Captivate and then click the mic button on it, it will bring up & control the media player playback instead of Listen. Is there a way to configure the behavior of this button? Is there a way to keep it from bringing up the Media Player app and instead control the Listen app?
Thanks!

I've been having the same issue. I installed winamp, but I get the same thing.

I installed doubleTwist, and it looks like it properly takes over button so that the stock music player app is no longer launched. Does this mean Listen is not doing it right?

Is there a way to prevent music from pausing during navigation?

I was surprised that rather than attenuating music playback the One pauses music when Waze or Google Navy is announcing an upcoming turn.

Not sure on that one, it might be app specific. For instance, last time I was listening to Pandora and navigating, the phone simply turned down the volume on the music while the navigator was talking. In the HTC Music app, it muted the music but it kept playing(annoying, since I was listening to an audio book...) and in Google Play Music, it would pause it.

unremarked is correct. I use PowerAmp and theres an option to pause the music or play the notification along with the music and thats what i use. I prefer the way iOS handles it though. The music goes lower while the notification sound plays. But i haven't found a way to make it work that way.

So this morning I got into the car and continued to stream music to my device via Google Music. I needed to make an unplanned detour so I fired up Waze to calculate a quick route avoiding traffic. Much to my delight the music I was streaming attenuated when Waze spoke, just like it used to do on my iPhone. I was so jazzed and my kids were probably wondering why. So at the next light I switched to the HTC player and no dice. Same behavior as before, muting/pausing music whenever Waze spoke directions. Finally I decided to try Pandora (which I haven't been able to stream to my car in the week I've had the One) and not only did Pandora play through the car speakers, it too attenuated when Waze spoke. I haven't tried this with Google Nav.
So what's changed since yesterday? Well I booted into Safe Mode (per HTC rep's suggestion) to troubleshoot a bluetooth volume issue and that didn't do anything other than remove some of my folders on one of my home panels. That bluetooth volume issue is a separate issue and it was not resolved through Safe Booting the device. Also, it appears there was an update to Google Music so that may have resolved the music pausing issue. Either way, I'm not sure what I did or what happened to the device to fix this behavior but I'm very happy to experience this expected behavior between music (except for the HTC native player) and nav.

Have jetAudio behave like default music app

Hello !
I flashed my head unit with a recent malaysk rom (update_4_4_4_FUSE_1024X600_RK3188_16_MAL_17_03_2016) and I just discovered jetAudio which suits me as player for different reasons (prev/next SWC don't work in that app and the EQ enhances the sound like the standard EQ doesn't).
But it doesn't behave like the standard "Music" app :
- When starting up the car it doesn't resume playing automatically
- When switching to radio it doesn't automatically pause but instead lowers its volume and you can still hear your music in the background of the radio
How do I get jetAudio to behave like the "Music" would if I used it ?

I think standard music app is controlled by the MCU (If i remember rightly)
So it knows to stop playing when losing focus.
Most other music apps dont work in the same fashion as generally you want to minimize the app and keep playing.
I use JetAudio and have gotten used to the idea of pausing music before exiting and likewise pressing play on start up.
If someone can get around this with Tasker or something i'd love to know too

Has anybody a solution for this issue? "....When starting up the car it doesn't resume playing automatically"

RocketPlayer seems to do this just fine on my headunit.
