Hey guys, just a quick question, does anyone know of any android apps that are able to play feeds from ScanAmerica?
Ive been searching everywhere to no avail. Ive tried going on the mobile website for ScanAmerica, but when i get to the point where its loading the feed, it opens the video player and says the format isnt supported.
I checked the url and it links to a .mp3 file, so i dont understand why it wouldnt play.
thanks in advance.
no one knows of any app that can do that? or any alternative way to listen to radioreference feeds on my phone?
Hey buddy, thanks for pointing this site out. I've always been in to scanners but never thought to check the web for such a thing!
But, to answer your original Q, I am able to stream Ottawa Fire from the site by selecting Winamp from the list, and it opens in Droid Live Lite. Hope this helps ya!
bro your a life saver, i installed droidlive and it was able to open and play the feed.
thanks a lot!
Per the subject line, I need to be able to start working on videos using my photos to put together stories. SO I need to be able to import my photos, show how long they should show before transitioning to the next one, and support a music track and an audio (voiceover) track. I have looked at what is available online, but the only thing that even sort of works on Android is Jaycut, and I'll be darned if I can figure out a way to get it to do two audio tracks.
Anything (!) out there, or do I need to accept that I have a use case that requires iOs rather than Android?
There is movie studio.

Umm... have you actually tried using that program? Not only is there 0 documentation (the Google web page for it literally just lists that it comes with Honeycomb), but it does not seem to support any of the items I need.
Of course if you've figured out how to make it work, PLEASE tell
I have used it moderately. And to be honest from what I can see, it can probably get by to your needs. But would need some work. Honestly if you really need all that, and know the ipad can do it, get the ipad.
So I linked my Ultraviolet account to my Nook HD...now what? I've looked through all of the stock apps and I can't figure out why the heck I needed to do this. I thought maybe that would mean those movies would be free in the store now, but that doesn't seem to be the case in the few I tried. Also, Flixster crashes as soon as it loads, so I can't see if my digital movies show up there either.
The Nook framework seems so polished to guide customers to only they can easily get to and enjoy, so linking ultraviolet without a readily accessible use just doesn't seem to make any sense.
Thank you for any input.
Hi guys.
As I have mentioned it before I have started working on a YouTube Player for Android Auto, but since I'm not a big youtuber myself I will like to get some input from you guys on how this should app work.
My thought till now are:
1) When you are outside Android Auto, you will need to open the app, give permission to access your content and sync your playlists to the app.
2) When in Android Auto, the media player will contain entries for each PlayList and all the items of a playlist will be listed as subitems. This part will work as any other media app.
3) Video playback, this will be on the fifth tab, same menu structure, but it will also display video, of course only when the car is stopped, other than that video playback will be disabled.
4) Provide search for individual songs.
- Is there any other way you usually use Youtube beside created playlists, if yes please tell me so I can understand what should I build.
Sync before use - Why is it needed?
- To be able to use the YouTube API which gives me access to your playlist and content I need to create a developer API. The API is limited to 1.000.000 trade units per day, every query has it's own unit value (not necessarily 1) so if I don't sync the playlist and use a fetch as needed approach, I will risk to run out of trade units when the user base grows bigger.
Any comments suggestions are welcomed.
Hello, I am very interested in this application.
It would be very useful if you could choose the quality of the video.
I want buy it
Hi,
Why a YouTube player, and not any other type of player? Several opensource players with local support exists. Why not use some of these as a base?

Local players do exist for audio, and it's easy to create an app for AA for them, but YouTube is more problematic, and yeah it's a bit against youtube policy because you shouldn't have sound without video, so officially that app will never be created (maybe with youtube red).
However this project did not receive too much attention so it's on a backburner at the moment, probably till end of November.

Ahh, Ok! You think in audio only YouTube player.
I hope someone will start to develop a Xposed module that "rewrites" the MainActivity of any selected App and add AA support on-the-fly! This will be more similar to MirrorLink (not supported in a lot of devices).
Regards.

Audio only + video when the car is parked/not moving.
Video Player app for Android Auto, maybe based to VLC that is open source would be very useful and i'll buy it surely

Why isn't there any more attention for this?
Listen to Youtube playlists and watching video while parking would be a killer feature for AA.
Excellent App idea ?
Would love this app
Great !
We wait youtube app to android auto ! Please <3<3<3

Here's my attempt to make YouTube work on Android auto.
www.thekirankumar.com/blog/2017/12/29/play-youtube-video-android-auto-app
It's an apk you download and install on phone and it allowd use of YouTube mobile site on Android auto. Enjoy !
Hi all here,
I am the author of what's called an unofficial Android Auto SDK, a piece of software
which allows creating custom Android Auto apps.
Because the poster of the previous message used this SDK, I believe it's
important that I quote my statement about video-in-motion AA apps from
the thread linked above also here. Please read below.

Dear all,
it is a good moment to say my final word specifically about the kind of apps
which allow playing videos on the head unit.
I think these don't need much comment:
It's ok to have a movie together on a great trip in middle of nowhere, when stopped.
It's not ok to watch a movie while driving. It doesn't need any comment.
It's totally ok for the passenger to watch a movie on his/her own device.
It's not ok for a passenger to watch a movie on a display in front of the driver.
It's ok to show off how a wonderful head unit I have which can play YT, but not while driving.
It's not ok to watch a movie while driving just to do a forbidden thing.
There's no "it's ok" scenario here for playing movies while in motion. Please share if you
know some. I'm pretty sure these are very uncommon or borderline ok.
Those "it's not ok" may be tempting. Because the driver may be bored, pissed off,
deny the danger of driving distracted, willing to show off, overestimate his/her skills,
name your reason.
Words displayed in the dash or written on a website or anywhere else would rarely
prevent it.
It's not that if movies are not possible in these cases, the driver will definitely do
something else stupid, like playing the video on the phone itself or become even more
angry and aggressive on road.
I want to say that clearly: I believe no apps should allow playing videos on the
car display while the car is in motion. Period.
I ask all here to not write such apps and not promote and talk about them here.
Instead of supporting those who create these apps just to satisfy popular demand of
doing a forbidden thing, please support those who actually care about creatively
and carefully designing the apps to be useful and which assertively, yet nicely
prevent being used in a stupid way.
Regards,
martoreto

Youtube auto Android auto
Wanting Android Auto to read ebooks to me. (Epub, Mobi, PDF etc) Anyone know of any available?
After looking through all the andoid auto apps, there doesn't appear to be an app capable of it. If you have an app that you like using that function with you could always email them, and ask them if they could make it AA capable. Otherwise you would be left with Audible and buying audio books, or something like LibrVox that has a ton of free audio books.
AA will use ANY TTS installed on the phone.

Reviving this thread. It's now 2022, any solutions found? Yes, any TTS app will play audio through AA, but I the OP and myself are looking for an AA app for on screen control.
i am finding audio books being read from PowerAmp is pretty good.. though still would like a TTS option
