Subsonic For ICS Android 4.0

[ttabbal]

Please add that ICS widget to the ICS app. It looks bomb.

Also, minor bug, but when you hit the top right menu button, the menu pops up in the old GB spot, rather than the top right corner

If there's a diff for it, I can try adding it to the code branch I have. Let me know.

Not sure on the menu thing. I've seen a few aps do that. If I get some time, I'll look at it.

Looks great - I tried to download it but the download link in the very first post does not work (at least at this moment).

Couple of questions:

1. Does these ICS mods get rid of the annoying 3-dot menu buttons at the bottom for ICS devices with 3 hardware buttons (back, home and menu). See the http://www.guidingtech.com/10821/disabl ... er-button/ for a screenshot of the annoying 3-dot menu. This 3-dot menu currently shows up on my HTC ONE X for the Subsonic app in the Google Play store and I really hate it.
2. This may have been discussed already but I haven't had a chance to read through the whole thread. Is there a functioning widget with this app?

THanks,
Osho

try the version ttabbal linked in the previous page, i have a gnex so i have no buttons that arent already on the screen

the build that im using does have a working widget but i built it from the source linked a few pages back, ttabbal's versionfrom the previous page might be the same as i do not recall modifying anything in mine to change widgets.

I tried the version posted here at:

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8497&p=40599#p40599

It looks great - the new interface definitely is a HUGE improvement. It also fixed the menu button hanging at the bottom on ICS devices with 3 hardware buttons issue for me. So, it's definitely a big UI improvement for me.

[quote="jsr"]I took haxzamatic's latest source on git and compiled it. It is located at http://www.ragtop.org/upload/subsonic/Subsonic-05-06-2012.apk. Note that you'll have uninstall and re-install since the keys the APK is signed with are different.

This version includes lighter colored play/pause buttons, notification controls, a better widget, and maybe other stuff. All credit for the new features goes to haxzamatic, all I did was compile the code. I've lightly tested this version, but there might be

Thanks for this. I was missing the lock screen controls.

Thanks. Donwloaded and running it - works great so far. Two questions.

1. Does this include the BT button fix from ttabbal?
2. How do I get lock screen controls?

Thanks,
Osho

it probably doesnt if it was posted before the last page, it probably doesnt include the low power fix ttabbal and i were talking about either. but that api was dependent on if your device supported the low power features also i believe so that might not make a difference for you

Do any of these custom builds support the AVRCP 1.3+ Bluetooth profile? TIA!

I suspect that has more to do with the OS than the app. The app just sees key events, so if the OS sends them on properly, it should work fine. The only way to know for sure is to try it.

Yeah, in theory CyanogenMod 9 (I'm running a nightly) includes the profile (commit located at http://review.cyanogenmod.com./#/c/13999/). I've seen reports of some apps working with it while others don't. I only got my Bluetooth receiver last night so my only experience was trying it this morning, but I didn't see any metadata on the display. Just curious if anyone knew it to be supported / working. I guess a better way of wording this question would've been to ask if Subsonic registers AVRCP events (that might not be the right term, but you know what I mean.. I hope!).

Just curious - what are the advantage of AVRCP 1.3+ Bluetooth profile over the usual (I believe A2DP) one?

Thanks,

A2DP solely transfers stereo audio (basically acting as digital headphones).. AVRCP is a much "smarter" way to control audio and video hardware. Version 1.3 implemented the transfer of track metadata and the status of the current track (playing, stopped, etc). For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_ ... 28AVRCP.29

I don't think I've seen anything in the code that would support sending metadata and such. AVRCP controls work, receiving button events from headsets and such, and will probably work with the newer profile stuff as the OS abstracts that out. However, it would be a larger project to include sending media data out. Particularly as I don't have any compatible hardware to send it to...

I'm at work right now so I can't really dive into this as much as I'd like to, but it seems that the official Subsonic source includes references to these listeners. The changes were originally proposed in the patch file attached to this post: viewtopic.php?p=38578#p38578 and have apparently since been added to the official source.. though no new official version has popped up with the additions.

I don't see those additions in haxzamatic's source.. Which would explain why we don't have the functionality in the latest Market.. Err, Google Play Store version of Subsonic OR in any of these custom compiles (if they're all using haxzamatic's source).

Edit: Integrated those changes into haxzamatic's source.. I'll make a test build when I get home.

[ttabbal]

Well... I managed to apply that patch... It loads up OK. Anyone want to test it with hardware? I don't think I have anything that can do it.
