Feature: Buffer Ahead (aka Prebuffer Next Song)

Description: Buffer ahead some number of tracks probably just 1. So when
the currently playing track finishes the app has another ready and waiting
to go.  Should eliminate a lot of the lag between tracks in the current
playback implementation.

Things to watch for:
* Audio objects can have have multiple events of the same type, but events
can also be removed, so this has to be managed carefully as any
implementation will need to use multiple Audio objects and flip flop them.

name= field not correct in URL

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play a song, any song.
2. Look at the URL being used in the request.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the url to be something of the form (session and oid removed for 
readability):

http://192.168.0.42/ampache/play/index.php?ssid=...&oid=...&uid=2&name=/Senses%2
0Fail%20-%20Fireworks%20At%20Dawn.mp3

What I get is:
http://bedrock.dnsalias.org/ampache/play/index.php?ssid=...&oid=...&uid=2&name=/
Senses

Notice the name= section is not complete. Senses is only the first word of the 
name. 

The Problem as I see it: Ampache apparently doesn't use the name= section of 
the URL. So right now if someone was able to get the session id of any request, 
they could get access to the catalog by repetitively incrementing the oid 
value. 

I was adding a feature to check that the name that comes in on the request is 
the name of the song. (I'm a noob at ampache, so maybe that is naive.) That way 
they only have access to things you have already requested that they managed to 
snoop(unless they are a good guesser). That way have the login over ssl, but 
the playback over http.

But, I can't check the name= field if ampache-mobile is not formatting it 
correctly.

FLAC Playback Not Working

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.  Install ampache-3.6~alpha1-0ubuntu6 on Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64
2.  Install Ampache Mobile v0.9.6 on Pre3 AT&T
3.  Install flac, faad, lame, and uncomment 
    transcode_flac          = true
    transcode_flac_target   = mp3
    in config/ampache.cfg.php
4.  Connect to server just fine in Ampache Mobile, add music directory, etc
5.  Try to play any flac music
6.  It just hangs with the play circle as a spinning wheel like its buffering

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Playing the flac song as a transcoded mp3.

Feature: Start Playback on App Launch via Configuration Options

Can I suggest a small add-on? I use Mode Switcher (AWESOME app) so when I go 
into areas with certain bluetooth connections (like my car and my bluetooth 
headset I use to mow the lawn) it will auto start a music player. I use pandora 
and Music remix not because i want to but they are the ONLY two apps that start 
playing music automatically on open.

Is there a way you can add a feature to keep track of what you were listening 
to on close and start playing again on reopen?

That seems sort of daunting so as an easier alternative, can you put a item in 
the preferences to pick a particular playlist (even if I have to type in the 
exact name of the playlist manually I don't care) and play it from the 
beginning?

Try out Mode Switcher and you'll love it, hopefully you'll love it for the same 
reasons I do and want to get that working too

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Setup ampache server
2. Install ampache mobile on palm pre2
3. Create catalog of .mp4 videos

The issue occurs both on Wifi and Verizon 3G.  MP3 Audio streams work perfectly.

The same .mp4 video also plays fine when played locally from the phones 
internal memory using kalemsoft media player, but does not work with the built 
in media player. Maybe allow a way to specify your media player instead of 
using the default player to allow more flexibility of video playback?

Smart Buffer Interrupts Playback on Pixi - Endless Buffer Cycle

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play song in Ampache Mobile .9.4 on Palm Pixi (WebOS 1.4.1.1)
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: Song to play, buffer next song.  
Reality:  Song plays only until next song begins to buffer.  Subsequently,
the original song pauses while the second song buffers.  Hitting play at
any point (whilst buffering, or after completed) results in lost buffer
error.  Rinse, repeat.


What version of Ampache Mobile are you using?
v.9.4


What version of Ampache Server are you using? ex: 3.5.1
v3.5.4


Please provide any additional information below. (Ex. Using transcoding,
problem is specific to EVDO vs WiFi)
EVDO access for Ampache Mobile, no transcoding.  Playback works perfectly
until buffering of second song begins.  Mainly default settings, with minor
changes to allow for longer PHP script access in php.ini (ran Jinzora for
quite a while before discovering Ampache).  Server-side looks awesome, and
performs as expected via browser or local access.  

Turned on stream debug in Ampache Mobile, and it reports pretty much what
was expected; [While playing original song] 'Current (#) Downloading #%,
Buffer ahead not used' - [First song pauses] 'Current (#) Paused, buffer
(#+1): Downloading #%' - Hitting Play button results in 'Buffers Lost,
Recovering' error.

Overly sensitive about empty tags

It took a while to find out, but if the <disk> tag in a server response is
empty, AmpacheMobile won't proceed with displaying the results (in the
precentral forums I saw a reference to an empty album tag, which triggered
me for this variant). In my database the disk column was NULL for all
albums (having upgraded from older versions I'm not sure if this is an ID3
issue or an Ampache issue actually).

I've set all NULLs to 1 and now it works like a charm :-)

Bug: Now Playing Screen must be displayed for audio to continue

Now Playing screen cannot play next track if scene is navigated away
from.(Audio Service fails).  Other applications seemed to have overcome
this, so there has to be a solution.

Current workaround is to simply stop the track when user leaves the now
playing screen.  Desired operation would be to keep the playlist/music
going and give the user the option re-enter the now playing screen.

Proposed solution would be to set the Now Playing variable in the
AudioPlayer object to null.  All call outs to the Now Playing screen have
null checks already.

Other, probably better option would be run the Now Playing as a separate
stage.

Cannot Stream Long .mp3 Files

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to stream an .mp3 file that is more than 6 or 7 minutes long

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should stream the entire .mp3 file from beginning to end.  Instead of 
streaming the entire file, Ampache Mobile hits a wall, cannot stream any 
more, and restarts from the beginning.  It appears to be unable to stream 
more than 6-8 minutes.  However, I can stream it just fine with VLC and 
with AmpachPre, which shows that the problem is not with ampache itself.

I have some audio books and audio courses that I want to be able to stream 
to myself and at this point in time I am forced to use AmpachPre to do so 
but the AmpachPre interface is sub-par to that of Ampache Mobile.

Wrong sorting of artists with a prefix/umlaut

The artists list is sorted in a wrong way when having artists with a prefix 
like "The".

In my case, there's an artist called "Die Ärzte" and my artists list looks 
like this

(#)
2 Men Ahead
(A)
a-ha
Alanis Morissette
...
Art Garfunkel
(D)
Die Ärzte
(A)
Aswad
(B)
...


So basically the list of (A) artists is interrupted and 'Die Ärzte' is 
inserted in the middle of it.
This could be also caused by the collation which causes the 'Ä' (A umlaut) to 
be treated different.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'd actually expect an artist starting with Ä to be sorted according to the 
locale - some locales do a sorting like this:

A, Ä, B, ...

while others do it like this:

A, B, ... X, Y, Z, Ä, Ö, Ü

I'm not really sure whether the sorting problem is caused by the fact that it 
is an artist with a prefix or it is due to the umlaut.

Please add support for ampache localplay!

I'm not sure how hard it is, but I'd like to use ampache-mobile just as a 
"remote" so to speak, rather than a full fledged media player. Example behavior 
would be:

1. Launch ampache-mobile/login
2. Select a song/press play
3. Song begins playing via mpd (or whatever localplay plugin you use) on local 
ampache machine

This way, when a phone is on a 802.11b/g network, rather than using 3g, it can 
connect locally to an ampache server and be used as a "remote" to control the 
playlist and etc.

Thanks!

Feature Request: Option to Remember Last Place in Stream

This is not a bug, but rather a feature request.

When playing a song if I have to exit Ampache Mobile, some times I'd like
to tell it to remember where it was when I quit Ampache Mobile.  Can we
have a tick-box attached to the song URL which when ticked will cause
Ampache Mobile to remember the last place we were in the stream and then
skip ahead to that spot in the stream when that song is played again?

I think that stale records could be cleaned up as necessary on start-up of
the app when the record is > 30 days old.

Thanks!
