Just wondering if anyone has heard of if/when MMA will be compatible with Android Auto again?

Still no update on when MMA with a large library will be compatible with AA?

I see there's an option in the settings "Limit list size for external apps" which I haven't noticed before. However, even setting it to "unlimited" doesn't do anything. I still just get a spinning wheel when selecting a large list such as Albums, Artists or Tracks.

Btw, it's working fine on several other music apps I have installed, so it's definitely a bug on MMA.

There are several known bugs that came with changes that Google made to Android Auto now require MediaMonkey to be changed so it works properly will all of AAs features. The devs are aware of most of them a believe. You will mostly just have to wait and see.

The "Getting your selection" is forever showing on my Android Auto. 2017 VW Golf/Note 9. Ugh, there is no way to get rid of this?

Three days ago I compared my Ford Sync 3's behavior with that of Chrysler's Uconnect, and they behave exactly the same with MMA ie they both either show a blank screen when a track should be shown or the message "Getting your selection..." is showing.
So yes I think there is something going on with MMA.

I've given up on MMA and now use Rocket Player, which works fine with AA.

Not sure as I don't have any big playlists. However, it loads my 16000 track library fine. The whole Android Auto experience is still crippled by Google's nannying tap limitation however. I'm currently trialling Apple's CarPlay and its implementation of the music app is much better (no tap limit, so you can actually find what you are looking for), although there are other things I don't like.
