Playing music over emby in Android Auto leads to crash/restart of smartphone

[skippa78 3]

Hello. As of one of the last versions of emby for Android (3.4.33) my smartphone consistently crashes, if I try to play music over Android Auto in my car (Skoda Kodiaq). The phone starts new and if I try again it crashes again. Has anyone ever expierenced this? It goes along with another issue, that you cannot control Casting on Google Cast devices (no play, pause possible) as mentiones in other threads. 

I cannot provide any Android-Logs. I have no access on the folder on my phone.

Hi, can you please let us know if this is resolved for you in 3.4.34+ ? Thanks !

I just installed that version. I will try soon. Thanks.

The problems persist with version 3.4.34. 

If I use Symfonium as Client for emby Server there is no problem.

@skippa78are you still seeing this with 3.4.38?

[skippa78 3]

This version does not appear in PlayStore yet. When it does, I will test. Thanks

It's up for sideloading if you're able to do that:

So I tried it yesterday and nothing changed. After 5 seconds of playing music over emby in Android Auto, the phone crashes and restarts. Playing music over Spotify or Symfonium as Client for emby works fine.

@skippa78 are you still running into this?

[skippa78 3]

Yes I am. Nothing changed with the last betas.

Hi @skippa78what Emby app version are you on now?

[skippa78 3]

I am on the latest beta now (since this week I think). Now it seems to work again.  I will test wether this is permanent.
