I forgot to mention in my previous comment that, as far as I can tell, there are no issues when I disable the 'multimedia control' plugin. Checking the crash reports on the Play Store, I found a ClassCastException on the following cast in AlbumArtCache.java: connection = (HttpURLConnection) currentUrl.openConnection(); This crash is actually quite common, with 300 crashes in the past 7 days. I'm not sure what's the cause though. The only other subclass of URLConnection that can come from openConnection() is JarUrlConnection: https://developer.android.com/reference/java/net/URLConnection But I don't think we can get a JarUrlConnection there. I was trying to reproduce the crash to see what kind of URLConnection we are getting there, but it doesn't seem to crash on me. What media player are you using? (In reply to Albert Vaca from comment #2) > What media player are you using? I'm using the qt5 branch of Clementine (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/clementine-qt5-git/). I'll try to reproduce it with some other player, soon. Okay, this is really weird. I can't reproduce it any more. Tested with Clementine and Rhythmbox. I haven't changed the versions of kdeconnect (on my phone and laptop) or Clementine. I've been able to reproduce it again. It seems to crash only if the song I'm playing has album art associated with it. This is with Clementine. I looked into it and couldn't find a definite answer. Maybe you could test my suggested change? You can download an Android apk at https://phabricator.kde.org/D12618 Can you try to install this and see if the app still crashes? You might get prompted to first remove the currently installed KDE Connect app. In case it doesn't work, it would be great if you could upload a log (connect your phone by usb and run "adb logcat" on the command line, then wait for the app to crash).

The new apk you linked at that Phabricator page works. I have also attached the output of 'adb logcat' during a crash, while using the version in the Play Store. I paired the devices with kdeconnect, enabled USB debugging, opened kdeconnect, and then started the command. I immediately went to my music player on my computer and played a music file with album art. After that, I got a message that kdeconnect crashed (on my phone), and I ended the 'adb logcat' command. Fixed on master, needs a release. @Albert: could you create a release including this fix? |
