Would it be difficult or even possible to have seamless playback from track to track when playing a playlist? I use GTVBox for listening to my music library as well, and every time a track ends there's about a five second delay before the next track starts. This is especially annoying when listening to an album that is recorded with tracks that flow together.
EDIT: It may also be helpful to know I also own the Sony Blu-Ray player, the NSZ-GT1. That's the one I use primarily for streaming music. It is technically possible for music... but not for the video. So, it is complicated to integrate this feature. I've noticed that many people use GTVBox for music now, while it is completely non-optimized for that: no background playback, no crossfade, no mp3 id3. It is very complicated to add these features to a video player and not to break smth. So, I was thinking about developing a separate app for music, which will include all streaming features of GTVBox (like smb/dlna/nfs) and at the same time will have all those music features like playlists, crossfade, album covers. I am still not sure, how many people will use it, as there are Google Music app, Plex app, avia and many more music apps for tablets that work on GTV. I just need to know why people use GTVBox for music... From the other side... I use GTVBox for music myself... I hate it, but Google Music is so stupid... _________________ ViMu PlayerViMu/GTVBox Google+ pageMy devices: Logitech Revue, Sony NSZ-GT1 (rooted), Sony NSZ-GS7, Vizio Co-Star, Hisense Pulse (rooted), ASUS Qube and some others...

I use GTV for music because it is able to access my vast music library. It's bigger than Google Music's limit (although I don't have a problem with the app necessarily). The Logitech Player is slow to load all the files and is slow to buffer.

I'm having problems playing some MKV files. It will play for about 15-20 seconds and then it will quit and show the root directory the file is located at. It's weird because it only does it with some, not all MKV files. Anybody else having this issue?

Hi, I just purchased the App through google play for my logitech revue, but it gets stuck on installing and doesn't complete. Are others having trouble with this since updating the market to google play? I have tried exiting and installing again, but it never completes.
Is there a way to fix this?

Is there a way to fix this? This happens from time to time with Market/Play. Just try to install later. It should be OK. _________________ ViMu PlayerViMu/GTVBox Google+ pageMy devices: Logitech Revue, Sony NSZ-GT1 (rooted), Sony NSZ-GS7, Vizio Co-Star, Hisense Pulse (rooted), ASUS Qube and some others...

The files are larger then 4gb so I can't really test what u are proposing. I have MKV files that are double the size that play just fine though. Any other thoughts?

It will allow for the larger files.

Format the drive in exFat. It will allow for the larger files. I didnt know the Sony GTv reads exFat formatted flash drives! I'll give it a try when I get back home from vacation and post the outcome.

I have 10tb of music on a server upstairs. So being able to play my music off of an SMB share is key. Album covers would definitely be a plus. Music visualization would be even better. ESPECIALLY dual channel scope view, or a standard VU style output (bouncing needles would be cool) Good random and search would be great. FLAC, SHN, APE would be a nice bonus.
