Sorry, can't find it right now...

As said, in that case the music stops when no activity of my app is visible, though on some devices only after the current track finishes. I sometimes remove the process=":remote" for debugging reasons (breakpoints won't work for a remote service), and when I forget to add it again before distribution, I get lots of complaints... So I'd prefer to do it without for this reason as well... > For example, the Music app that is > part of the open source project uses this service declaration in its > manifest: > <service android:name="MediaPlaybackService" android:exported="true" /> Strange... Maybe the "exported" attribute makes the difference? Or might there be anything else? onStartCommand and its return value doesn't exist in Android 1.x, so that shouldn't be it... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
