VLC has been great on graphene for a year or so but recently started having issues playing over bluetooth in my car. Tried a few open source options from FDroid but wound up going back to Omnia (Sandboxed play store) for now. No more playback issue for a few days now.

Seemed to happen when I got Graphene’s Android 17 update, but I can’t say for sure it was that. The issue I have with it currently is that playback audio cuts out in the car, but the screen still indicates it’s “playing” - track time still ticking. I’d have to tap to pause and tap to resume to bring it back, and it would only last a few minutes before doing it again.

I think it’s likely less VLC’s fault and more likely an Android 17 thing.

The open source apps I tried worked a peach, but didn’t let me use the car’s (Honda) menu to browse music or select albums. Most of the ones I tried didn’t even appear as options while trying to use the car to change what music I was listening to.

Oh I like you.

Oh, got it

I don’t get it

Okay, I think I’m starting to get it. Thanks for the help. In my experience I don’t recall losing access to anything I “owned” from Valve.

If people still want for consoles to be physical media, why hasn’t the industry just moved to flash modules?

I’ve been a Steam boy my whole adult life so I don’t understand the desire, but then again Valve hasn’t spent 30 years fucking me over either…

ONE OF US!

I prefer my critical faculties completely intact and un-altered, thank you very much.

In that case you can put me in the lower median group

I wish more followed that thinking and chugged a gallon before thinking twice.

Got to think about the “average” people you know, and then suddenly realize 1/2 of all people are dumber than that.

Warning: not good for your sanity to do the above

By then Motorola will have shipped the first round of “with Graphene pre installed” devices, assuming they stay with their plan.

GrapheneOS, asap Pixel owners.

Thank me later.

Cool

Nexus is a good channel, but normies don’t even know what linux is. Steve may be tech Jesus but he’s no linux bro.

Flatpak ruules!

Maybe so. I use cachy just for the record, so I’m not piling on with linux hate. I’m just enjoying the madness of it all. :)

Sweet
