Shuffle and repeat issue in car

Just got Deezer a few days ago. I’ve been testing it out and it’s been great aside from a few quirks. One of which is when connected to my car via bluetooth, the app will automatically go on repeat and when I try to turn off repeat it glitches and puts on shuffle and repeat. Wondering if this is a known issue with a workaround because I couldn’t figure out how to get it to normal play mode consistently. Pressing the repeat icon should definitely not alter the shuffle mode state.

 

iPhone 13 mini running newest Deezer on iOS 15.7.1 via Bluetooth in a 2017 Jetta SE

Hey, sorry about that, could you try connecting your Deezer to your Car Entertainment System

or to the Waze app?

Hi @ppahv, thanks for the details and sorry that steps didn’t work. 

After doing some research, I have found another user, that owns same brand of car, with the same issue.

We want to investigate deeper, so our engineers  asked if you could try to get info about the media you connect to:

  • model and brand of the media center
  • version of the Bluetooth
  • year of the car
  • any other information relevant regarding the media center

Also a side question, you don’t have any other option to connect to your car media center? If you have, do you have the same issue?

Finally, if you connect to another Bluetooth device (earphones, speaker, … ) do you have the same problem?

Thank you for your reply.

Here are the answers to your questions:

- Mercedes C-Class C200 / Mercedes Infotainment (I couldn't find a specific name in the manual). According to my Bluetooth devices list on my phone, the media centre is recognised as MB Bluetooth. But it's clearly not MBUX since it's equipped with later models (2020 onwards);
- I don't know the Bluetooth version (it's not mentioned anywhere in the manual or in the media centre settings);
- 2017;
- This media centre doesn't support Carplay.

I can connect my phone to the media centre via USB. However, for some reason I don't know, the media centre can't play anything from my phone when it's connected via USB. REPEAT mode doesn't activate when I try to play a track while it's connected via USB (though no sound comes out of the loudspeakers even when volume is high).

I don't have this problem when playing from other Bluetooth speakers (JBL Go, Samsung soundbar) or headphones.

Hope this helps!
