That looks like Auto mode. Tap the image of the car, it'll go back to normal.
Nothing that I can find is an RSS feed, even though everything says that it is. IHeart and Apple Podcasts want you to use their app, so they can show you ads.
There's an interesting API page at...
I'm with you, arghness! It's the playlist generator that keeps me here.
Yeah, I'm with Mart1nS!
Or, you can use their own RSS feed To The Best Of Our Knowledge so that feedburner can't stuff in ads! Of course, NPR has their own "ads" but they're easier to stomach.
My best guess is that the app has been dumped from memory, and is reloading. I keep trying to find a setting that says "NEVER remove this app from memory" but no lock so far. Yes, I've checked or...
Wouldn't it be easier to fetch the RSS? Firefox has a very nice RSS display format. If the feed drops old episodes (which would make it hard to listen to them again), write something simple that...
Umm, no. What BP version?
Yes, this is the feature that makes me stick, warts and all. The random stopping seems to have been fixed, and if they could just get it to catch "Play" bluetooth Intents when it's not the active...
juwlz is long gone; she was discarded as part of the purchase, and is much missed.
No, it didn't help pausing, but as Hairy noticed, it seems to start faster when you tap the icon rather than the widget.
Thanks for sharing this tip! I've removed mine, and I'll post whether it works for me.
More than two categories for each feed. I have more than a dozen categories, but I use the two per feed categories for download scheduling (daily/weekly/monthly), and for playback scheduling,...
Even though we do have a workaround, those media elements are clearly marked with appropriate types, so I'm still amazed that BP has this bug at all...
Very good! This worked for the WBUR News feed as well. Thanks!
Yeah, that's the big feature that makes me stick. I've got it all organized...
Actually, the XML puts up both an image and the mp3 as <media:content ... /> entries. The mp3 is the only thing inside the <enclosure ... /> tag. I can only assume that BP is using the first...
I've been seeing the same thing for a while now on their news feed. *some* episodes play, others don't. I haven't analyzed the HTML in depth yet, though.
I did that months ago...
I'm having similar symptoms, but the white screen eventually turns into the app. Yes, it takes a *long* time. But yes, it seems like bluetooth and perhaps widget events don't wake up BP. I have...
You're very welcome!
This is an option for each SmartPlay entry; you can pick however many of the oldest episodes in the category to add to the playlist.
Set the smartplay program to play the newest 50 (or whatever) episodes of your real-time category. That way, new downloads will be put at the beginning of the playlist that gets rebuilt after an...
Why not group your time-sensitive feeds together in a category, and put 50 of that category as the first entry in your smartplay? I don't use the categories as actual subjects, I use the two for...
