I've been using the LG G Watch for a while now and I'm really loving it. However, I noticed that the music controls don't seem to work properly.
When I play a track on my Nexus 5 via Google Play, the artwork and title appear on the watch face, but pausing / playing don't work and I can't skip or go back a track, either.
As far as I can see I'm using the latest version of the Google Play Music APK and the watch is running the latest firmware. I've also tried resetting the watch and re-syncing the apps on it.
Another thing to note is that I'm running the Android L Developer Preview - not sure if that makes any difference.
Has anyone else had this issue?

Glad I'm not the only one getting this. Google Music updated today, but the issue is still there.
Same issue here on Google Music, Pocket Casts, and Player.FM - kinda annoying!
Same here, went back to 4.4.4 as many apps were having this problem (Google Music, Google Movies, Youtube)
Same issue for the Samsung Gear Live with Nexus 5 L preview.
Same issue here, works on HTC one m8, but not on nexus 5 and 7 running L. I assume its a problem with the way L handles music controls in notifications.
Happens to me with Spotify, the notification shows up but the play/pause control doesn't work. Using a Gear Live with a Nexus 4 running CM 10.2.1 (Android 4.3). However, Spotify works perfectly for a friend using a GS4 running KitKat connected to a LG G watch.
Got mine today, running Android L preview also and having the same issue. Anyone know of a fix/update on its way perhaps?
I do know that persistent/non-cancelable notifications are not mirrored to Wear for ANY app. That's usually the type of notification used to show playback controls, but it doesn't explain why the apps that have been updated don't seem to work correctly.
I also had this problem with L installed. I've since reflashed the stock 4.4.4 image, and they work fine.
Can anyone confirm whether this issue has been fixed in L yet?
It's one of the only things keeping me from using L on my everyday phone.

It will be fixed in the full release. But the dev preview won't be updated.
I thought I was the only one. So we have to wait for the Android L official release, hopefully it won't be to long
Same for me
I have the exact same issue with my Nexus 5 and Android L preview build LPV81C. Hoping it get fixed before full release. Fingers crossed ...
I have the same problem with my G Watch and Nexus 4 (running stock 4.4.4).
Anyone found a solution?
Edit:
Not a problem anymore, it was caused by an app for controlling my headset... -_-
I have the same problem with stock Nexus5 and Samsung Gear Live
I have the notification on gear of some song and when i try to "open on phone" none happens. If i try to play nothing happens again
BUT, if i open an music app (like Google music) and tap play on wear, then spotify (and this is strange) starts to play (a song different from that reported by wear notification).
This don't happens until i don't start an music app (seem that when i start a music app something will be initialized).
I also think that the notification on wear is something of old that has been stored by wear but not updated (probably after a spotify update).
Hey guys, try Wear Music Controller in the Play Store. It should control all your music players for you!
I have the same issue with you.
same here
Recently got my moto 360, doesnt work as well. Safe to say its the L preview bug.. But so disappointing

Thanks man works great.:good:
EDIT: The developers got back to me, here's the link to the test build for Lollipop support:
"We have already released a test build which can run on Lollipop
https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/translation/test-build
Notes:
1. MX Player Pro Issue: Due to a license validation bug in Android 5.0, it may crash. Google has acknowledged the issue & will be fixed. We are also looking for alternative work arounds. We recommend to use free version till that
2. H/W+ is not supported. (we are working hard to fix this issue as soon as possible)
Regards,
MX Player Support"
-------------------
Original question:
Hey guys, does anyone know how to get MX Player to work on a Nexus 9? It just says "Unsupported Android version" and the app shuts itself off. Any known workarounds would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I'll wait until the pro version works...
MX player has a solid track record of taking a while to support new devices. I bet they have something out in a week.
V Player works
I use v player from the playstore until mx is updated.
I know from past builds that Netflix wasn't working for some reason.
Now with new builds and Remix OS going to beta with big issues solved, is Netflix finally working?
The problem is it can't play videos greater than 360p natively at the moment. It has yet to be solved as of the feb2 build. If I remember correctly video was mentioned as being worked on in the "what we're working on" section for the androidx86 project.
who cares about netflix? kodi works perfectly haha
the android-x86 mm builds support higher resolutions. unless Jide backports codec fixes or switches to mm. but even then Remix OS doesn't contain widevine drm for netflix or google play movies.
I know it's already 4 months after the question was raised. But right now I can watch Netlflix movies on my Asus Eee PC . I'm using latest beta.
On my Umidigi One Pro running Android 10 GSI videos of some Apps like Twitch or Instagram wont play like they should. This also happens to the animations in the Settings App.

Does anybody knows how it could bei fixed?
