Bluetooth Audio Problem

[junksecret]

I just got a GN after having a Charge & then a Bionic. I am loving the phone, but have a bit of an issue with audio via Bluetooth. I have a 2012 Mercedes and with my Bionic it displayed the artist, title, track, etc and I could skip to the next track easily.

Now My audio plays but it displays no song info and I can't switch from track to track.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Trade in the Mercedes for a Ford with Microsoft Sync! (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

Are you using Google Music (Play)?

No, I'm using Android Music Player which is what worked so well with my Bionic but I've also tried "tunes wiki?" I think is the name, it also worked from the Bionic.

(where IS that Ford dealer????......

Can anyone recommend another player to try?

I believe the problem is that the Bluetooth stack in stock Android doesn't support AVRCP 1.4, which is needed for sending metadata. Motorola seems to have included a Bluetooth stack that does support it, see this Google bug:

AOKP B32 is supposed to come out soon with AVRCP 1.3 included.
