Android Auto Playback Skips Forward

Issue description:

Whenever I start playing on Android Auto, playback will continually skip forward approximately ten seconds. This occurs every few seconds, rendering the track un-listenable. Changing the track does not resolve. Occasionally, disconnecting & reconnecting the device will resolve.

Any ideas what could be wrong? Thanks.

Is this present in the logs ?

I do not see any seek or error but the logs are very large as contains a hundred different days, but for today very small and does not contains a track change or anything.

100 days? Geeze. Apologies.

It should appear in the logs today, 9/14, starting at approx 10:50 am est. I enabled debugging, connected to the car, repro’ed the issue, disconnected from the car, then disabled debugging.

One of the first lines of the log :wink:

But I do not see anything in the logs, can you make a video of what happens exactly?

Does it only happen when connected to AA and not on the mobile but at the same physical spot ?

Apologies for the delay. I have had this issue for weeks. I am continuing to encounter this, but every time I start to record a video, the issue is resolved, & playback is normal. I’m no Android dev, but makes me wonder if it’s related to when the phone idles?

I will keep trying.

Well you do not answer the question :slight_smile:

The app gives you a link to https://dontkillmyapp.com/ if it’s an in background issue. But seeing the logs I doubt it’s that. Sounds more like an AA/ BT issue.

@Tolriq Managed to get a video.

Do you have the logs corresponding to the video so that I have the times?

And again does it only occurs in AA and not in mobile mode only ?

No, debug mode was off. I turned it off so that I wouldn’t send two days of logs again. But I will turn it on & try to send a curated log next time.

Yes, this is only Android Auto. Works fine when disconnected from the car.

Very strange.

Try to make a video that match the logs so there’s times and positions easily visible.
