Close unexpectedly on local playback

[armageddon421]

When I press play at the top the App closes unexpectedly. The music is then playing perfectly fine while that error dialog ist still open but obviously stops as soon as I choose to close or restart the app. This is on a oneplus 6 with Android 8.1.0/Oxygen OS 5.1.5

This happened with the version 0.14.0 from the GitHub releases. I just tried the play store version (it reports 0.14.0.14) and there everything seems fine.

It happened for me with both 0.13 and 0.14 with Oreo.

I think it's broken since I've updated the SDK version to 26: f422fb7. I guess that the crash is related to the updated notification API, which unfortunately seems not to be solved with 872350b (as far as I remember there was a bug report with a stack trace and the Android Linter was also pointing me to the notification API). Can you please provide a stack trace of the crash? Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the bug with the emulator, and my latest phone is running Marshmallow. Also I wasn't aware of a Playstore version. I found this one, which seems to be from this fork, and this fork is still at SDK version 25, so it shouldn't be affected from notification crash.

This is what i get on 8.1 with a logcat running during the crash:

[badaix]

Please try this version: Snapcast_0.14.80.apk.zip

[kutmasterk]

Yes, this works.

The "now playing" notification does trigger a notification sound tho. Don't know if this is intended, but it would be better without a sound.

[badaix]

It's not intended to play a sound. This version might be silent, and hopefully doesn't vibrate or blink: Snapcast_0.14.81.apk.zip

[armageddon421]

This fixed it for me, thank you very much!

[kutmasterk]

Yes, new version is silent. Working as expected on Android 8.1. Thanks!

[badaix]

fixed in release v0.15.0
