Thanks for reporting.

The UI for Android Auto has been broken since a few releases back. Will look to tackle it for Podcini 6.1.

In the mean time, if you have it connected to the car system, and select and play an episode from the phone, does the sound come out of your car's audio?

[Loi83]

Oh okay. I'm sorry, I didn't know that. I've only been around since version 5.5.1 😅 If I start a podcast via the app beforehand, it is output via the car audio system

[XilinJia]

OK. Once that plays, then the buttons (play, pause, rewind, forward, and perhaps skip to next) on the car's system should also work. Can you verify?

[Loi83]

No, there is only a black screen

[XilinJia]

You don't have hardware buttons on the car system?

[Loi83]

Sure i have, but only for vloume Up/down, Power and voice .
