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.

Was this ever solved? This recently started happening to me. Only in my other care that has wireless AA. Maybe related?

NVM just tried pandora and same thing . Must be an AA issue. Was fine yesterday so must be new.

No, I never solved this. Happens on multiple cars. Both wired & wireless. It’s maddening, but it must be my phone somehow.
