troyhough 57 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 When playing something in background mode and I turn the phone off, it works great, audio only of course. However when I turn the phone back on, the picture is black. If I expand it to full screen, stays black. The only way I have figured out to fix it is to stop playback and restart it. Phone is a Pixel 2 XL. @@troyhough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uglymagoo 9 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 There has not been a new beta release in the mean time and the original post was removed, so I suppose they found a last minute show stopper. Please wait for a 3.0.22+ release. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R2Rn 4 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Hi Guys, Hi Luke... I know this is being worked on, just another Me Too. S8 running Android 8.0. I use my android exclusively for listening to music in the shop. (hmm, one thing Plex did better?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R2Rn 4 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 You use Emby to play back your music library and it stops playing when screen goes black? Yup... That's the one. Also Sometimes(?) stops when it is just not front-center ie: I'm doing something else with my phone. We should have an update for this in the next few days. Thanks guys.

Luke 37064 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Are you actually queuing up multiple tracks to play? This really shouldn't be any issue anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
