Emoji in podcast titles causes a disconnect loop from Android Auto #7165
Comments
I have not verified this bug yet, pretty funny that someone would put emoji into an episode title. Looking at the logs, it will also crashed if playing over Bluetooth headphones? |
Nope, the same episode plays fine while using bluetooth headphones (just tested a few mins ago to confirm). Based on what I'm seeing, it seems to be the tuple
If you have suggestions on things I can try to help narrow this down, I'm down to help. I work as a backend dev, so I don't mind tinkering, but I have exactly zero skill points in the app space. EDIT: I just realized that this wasn't emphasized in my original post, but viewing the list of episodes in the queue is fine. It's only when trying to play the episode with emoji in the title that it gets into the disconnect loop. So I wonder if it's potentially an issue with the playback view in Android Auto? |
@davidyoung604 thanks for troubleshooting. If you play that episode on an app like PocketCast, does that work? I am wondering if we need to strip out special characters to the audio player. That would be weird. |
I finally got a chance to test this today with Pocket Cast, and it behaved in exactly the same way: everything was fine until the moment I hit play, then it got into a crash loop. There was a slight difference though, in that un-plugging and re-plugging the USB cable didn't let me continue using Android Auto. Even force-stopping the app didn't address it, so I had to fully uninstall it. Maybe related to auto-resuming playback? |
