Questin about multitasking.

Hi there,
I want t o be able to play a youtube video and browse the internet at the same time. But every time I leave youtube either through the application or through the browser it stops working.
I tried through FireFox mobile but no dice even using an extension called phony.
and help?
Also I managed to use an MP3 as my incoming call ring-tone.
Is it possible to do the same for the incoming messages?

I guess that's a "problem" of the youtube app which stops playing as it is minimized.
either that or android just needs the Ram for surfing
you could use ringdroid

Could it be im using it wrong?
Because it works with the music player which comes with the phone..
I press the home botten long it brings the multi tasker up and i choose something else like the internet and just stops playing.. It dos not close the app it just stops the video.
Thx for the app by the way.

Video uses a LOT more resource then audio does so it makes sense that the music player would continue while the video player would not. Also I know that app developers went out of their way to enable music to remain playing in the background of other apps. Video? Not so much.
I tested it on my own phone. When I switch to a different app, the YouTube app pauses and loses signal. When I return to it, it has to search for the video again.

[Q] music playing bug on kph, kpe

Hi! I update the kph rom. But I found that there is a music playing bug. When playing music, then turn off screen. The music will stop after 30 second. I use poweramp to play! Anyone got the problem?

No such problem on stock player.

Was it really necessary to create a thread for this? You could have posted it in the Feedback forum,couldn't you?

Using PowerAMP Pro. Haven't got this problem. Sounds like a problem to do with a badly applied RAM script closing PowerAMP. Have you installed CF-ROOT? Need more details mate!

Thank you for your reply
I try the stock and other music player, no such problem!
Yes, I use CF-root for my i9003!

It also happens with the other music players.
Please Help !!

Rom ? Music Player ?

Maybe you don't have enough RAM to keep the music player in memory.

Due to lack of Ram , the Android system kills your music player to free some. Uninstall all your useless applications which might be consuming a lot of resources. Also opt for a light music player and a light launcher

The OP might be using a task killer and when he uses it to kill memory it kills his walkman palyer...

[Q] Music Play / Pause Issue - Running KitKat Kn0xraid

I'm running the most current kn0xraid (v 3.5) rom.
Whenever I use any music player app, I have to pause/unpause a song to get it to play. I start the song, the counter starts but no music. I then have to pause the song, and unpause it - and only then will the song play.
I've reflashed the rom to see if maybe it was the problem, but I really don't know.
Any ideas on solutions? Thanks in advance!

[Q] Is there a way to control music player from the watch ?

Hi all,
I have not been able to find any way to control the Google Music or any other application from the watch. I was expecting not being able only to launch the music application from it, but also to control the volume or to switch the song.
I have found in Google Play Store applications like this (trial and then allow you to purchase the license):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.barkside.music
If there is no native way to do this, i really cannot understand as i see this one of the most logical applications to use from the watch.
Cheers.

You can play, pause, skip forward and back tracks with the Google Play Music app and Android Wear directly.
When playing music it should automatically display on the watch.
If not, check and make sure you haven't muted the app.

Music Boss works for most players.

I haven't muted the application. The strange thing is that just in the moment i hit the play button from the phone (Sony Xperia Z3 with Android KitKat 4.4.4) the notification for the music appears, but hides immediately. Maybe its an issue from my phone.
Thank you very much for the quick answer .

Thank you, i will try to continue searching the reason why the Google Music default notification disappears immediately, but if not, i may try Music Boss.

I'm trying to determine the benefit of Music Boss. I have used it with the 3 main audio apps I tend to use, all of which notify to my watch (TuneIn Pro, Sirius, and Google Play Music). They are set up in Music Boss as well. So when any of them are playing, I have two different cards - one for the app itself and one for Music Boss. I can't seem to see how Music Boss gives offers anything beyond the separate apps, other than a common interface. Can anyone with more experience using this app tell me what i'm missing? Thanks!

same here, I found that android wear supports quite a few music apps out-of-the-box.
like vanilla music - they havent released a wear-related update afaik, but when I play music with the app it shows up as a card on my phone with play-pause and I can swipe into a next-previous-vol up-vol down screen

Sony Walkman, Google Music and Spotify works on my watch. No need for Music Boss or anything. Phone is Z2.

I finally found the problem. Sony Xperia has a free application called SmartKey:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonymobile.extras.liveware.extension.smartkey
With this application it is possible to assign extra functions to the button to answer calls in the headphones.
Anyway, this application was interfering with the SmartWatch option to show the controls in the watch graphic interface. Removing it or disabling it solves the problem.
Thank you very much for the help .
