When using headphones, the next track works as a 30 second fast forward #13

Closed shady2k closed 2 years ago

shady2k commented 3 years ago

Has installed today this application and it worked fine, but it have one annonyed issue. When I trying to control music via my headphones in standart music application double click on my headphones works as next track command, but in this application it works as fast forward on 30 seconds. Can you fix this?

memen45 commented 3 years ago

Thanks for your feedback. I am not sure whether it is possible for me to change this behaviour. Do you have other controls on your headphone that behave differently as well? It might be the 'next track' command is actually a 'skip forward/backward' command and the native music app interprets this as a 'next track' command as it does not support skipping 30 seconds.

Headphones has standart contols: one click - play/pause, double click - next track. With standart music player and with spotify app they worked as expected, but in this app double click produces fast forward.

Could you compile app version for me without PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_FORWARD and PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_BACKWARD profile?

memen45 commented 3 years ago

Well, yes I can compile it for you to sideload the app, however, the sideloaded app doesn't work properly for many features, so I am not sure if that will be a solution.

I could open a bug report in the Garmin forums, since I think this behaviour is not expected.

I thought it was difficult but was able to compile myself. I can confirm that compile without PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_FORWARD and PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_BACKWARD solved my issue.

In the last update (v0.1.3-delta) I made a small modification with regards to skipping tracks. Could you check if it solves your issue?

Just cheked out the last version. Problem still persists.

shady2k commented 3 years ago

Maybe implement such logic: when in podcast mode use PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_FORWARD and PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_BACKWARD, when play music - without this attributes. Can it be done?

memen45 commented 3 years ago

Yes that should be possible. I still do not know the cause of the issue, but I think

Podcast: skip to next episode Normal: fast forward 30sec

should be possible. Only thing is, the 30s skip buttons do not show up as an option on the watch if the PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_FORWARD and PLAYBACK_CONTROL_SKIP_BACKWARD are removed right?

Yes, buttons don't show.

memen45 commented 3 years ago

Hmm, another option is to make an option somewhere to turn on or off the 30s skip. It could solve the issue for you, while still enabling other users to have the 30s skip buttons available per default. What do you think of that?

shady2k commented 3 years ago

Yes, it fits my needs. I never use these buttons, but I understand that there are people who need it. Adding the ability to disable these buttons in the settings is a good way to solve my issue. Please check that this setting is stored between sessions.

Sorry for not coming back to this. I still do not completely understand the behaviour of the watch controls vs headphone controls in all situations (e.g. while track is playing vs when paused). I think the most thorough approach would be to

Based on the results, a decision can be made to make sure everything behaves as expected. The above requires some testing on an actual device, some code to allow the testing and results may still vary between devices.

For now, I have added the option in settings to disable the Skip 30s buttons (see version 0.2.1-myles). Hopefully it resolves your issue, please let me know if it does or if you encounter any problems. Thanks for your patience!

On the watch, you can go to the main menu, then choose About --> Settings, then scroll down to Enable skip and uncheck the box. You can also change the setting from the Connect IQ app settings.
