General Discussion / Re: Simple song collector for iphone

« on: April 11, 2023, 06:05:48 pm »

There isn't a version of song collector for iPhone because it would be rejected by the App Store and there is not yet an option to side load to iOS.  I've heard side loading may be coming to iOS to avoid legal issues for Apple so I will have the song collector ready when that occurs. 

As a workaround, you can run the song collector in any decent Android emulator. A good example is  Bluestacks which can be run on windows or intel powered macs.  In the emulator, you can collect the songs and then share them via google drive or iCloud and import them on the iPhone.

Issue Reporting / Re: Volume on walkout songs are not standard between players

Does it behave that way if you just play through the phone speaker?  Can you try using an aux cable to the speaker rather than Bluetooth?

Apple Music songs are all actually played by the Apple Music app player so double playback suggests some issue with that player that is keeping one instance going while another starts.  I would suggest killing that Apple Music app and seeing if that remedies the behavior.  You could also try a full device restart.

 I'm not getting any other reports of this issue and thousands of people are using the app currently so that suggests some malady unique to your device or environment.

Is it particular songs that always have this volume contrast or is it just random with any songs?  If you play the two songs in your example in the Apple Music app do they have that same volume contrast?  Are you playing the songs through a Bluetooth speaker by chance?

What device type is this, Apple or Android?  What is the source of the music?

Change their number to 'double zero' in the number box. Both the Android and Apple app will accept that and it works.

Hmmm... I don't have a quick answer for you.  I've never had a report of playback stuttering from anyone before.  If the app had memory issues or couldn't play the songs correctly from the song collector, then you would not have been the first to let me know.  It sounds like something specific to your environment, but I can't think of anything obvious that would affect the playback.  Can you do a share data export of what you have setup to walkoutsongdj@gmail.com and maybe attach one of the songs that the stutter occurs with?

In the top right corner of the song collector app, there is a three dot menu.  Tap that and select video instead of song to switch from searching google music to searching standard google videos.  You should be able to find it then.   But just to save you time, I had somebody else request that I find that song back in February so I already gathered it.  It should be attached to this post. #BurgerKing

Does this happen with all your songs or just one?  What device type are you using, Android or Apple?  Can you grab a screen shot of the cue selection page right before you tap done and then email it to WalkoutSongDJ@gmail.com

One thought that might get you by until I can add something... you could create multiple versions of the same team with the same setup just different announcements, then pick a different team version for each game.  There is a copy player option from one team to another in the walkout section that might speed the setup process.  Not actually random, but you could make it seem that way.

That would simplify the implementation a bit.  Only drawback I see is in the confusion level it could cause with more basic users.  You are the only one that has ever mentioned this feature need in the 10 years the app has been out so I don't suspect many others will understand the pointer from announcements to lists.

That sounds like an issue with the Android media manager database.  You can verify the songs are actually downloaded by opening your Android file manager and looking in the Download folder and then the SimpleSongFinder sub-folder.  If they are in there and still not showing up in the My Music folder of Walkout Songs, then that confirms the issue is with the Android media manager.  Usually power cycling the Android device will reindex the Media Manager database and fix the problem.  If they still don't show up, you should be able to pick the browse option from the Walkout song picker and just manually pick the songs from that download folder.

Ah, ok, hmmm...  That could be done but would not be a simple modification.  The database structure would need to be changed to accommodate the multiple announcements and that would ripple through many other aspects.  I can add that to my future feature list, but it would definitely need to wait until a lower risk time of year when the prospect of breaking changes won't impact so many spring users. 

Thank you for the suggestion and I will update this thread when any progress is made.

General Discussion / Re: Remove a team

To delete a team or any group on any page, just swipe left and confirm the box that comes up. 

If you want to add a team name where you completely cleared one, you just have to tap where the first letter is supposed to be and watch for the keyboard to pop back up, then type in the new name.
