I'm writing a new media app that plays music from the Internet, and I'm trying to use this app in my new car which supports Android Auto and also Bluetooth audio streaming. On my head unit, I have a media button that enables the bluetooth stream. I can play music in my app and it plays through the head unit just fine. My problem is that the display on my head unit has a 'Browse' button, and when I select it, I'm assuming it should show me a listing of the songs that the player knows about. Instead I just get a 'No content' message.
I'm now thinking that my assumption is incorrect and that there is no way to browse the media over Bluetooth. Is that correct? When I hook up via USB and launch Android Auto, my player appears and I can browse the media through Android Auto just fine. I just wish Android Auto could work wirelessly because I hate having the USB cable connected all the time. It's a hazard while driving and, having to spend 2 hours in the car every day, it's sort of hard on the phone battery since it's constantly draining and charging during those times. (And my Samsung GS6 doesn't have an easily replaceable battery, boo!) So, my question is, is it possible to browse media files over Bluetooth? Or am I chasing an impossible dream? Thanks for any and all assistance. Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
