no easy way that I know of to have my tablet play through my car stereo system

Does your car stereo support Bluetooth? Or CarPlay (iOS) or Android Auto (Android)?

Please put it on the wish list. Using the app to play a setlist is good, but no easy way that I know of to have my tablet play through my car stereo system. The current export is very limited since I have a lot more songs than the limit to export.

I can put a set list filter for the export functions on my wish list. Meanwhile, you can auto-play the recordings in a set list from the app using these instructions:

Repertoire Help / Re: {eop} and {sop}

Those look like ChordPro directives, but they're not part of the official spec:

Anyway, BandHelper doesn't have a function for stripping those out. In my experience, you always have to do some kind of cleanup or correction when copying and pasting from the Internet.

Repertoire Help / {eop} and {sop}

Last post by dcraftfrombr - September 26, 2026, 11:46:28 PM

When I copy and paste chord and lyrics from the internet, sometimes the format includes such lines as {sop} and {eop} and {inline}. What are these markers for and is there an easy way to strip them out?

A couple of reasons. one is that if I have a rehearsal setlist coming up, I would like to copy all of the recordings onto a USB flash drive so that I can listen to the songs in my car. another is that I have a few bandmates that do not use Bandhelper but I would like to give them the songs on a USB drive. I know I have the original recordings on my computer but they are not in one place, so if I could dump them to a new folder that would be helpful.

You don't need to link the songs, unless you're using the Only Between Linked Songs option under the Auto-Advance Through Songs setting.

You do need to add the app control action Start Recording triggered by Song Selection or Song Auto-Selection. See step 2 in these instructions:

Repertoire Help / Auto Advance Not Working For M...

Testing the auto-advance function: 
1. Created Songs
2. Imported a recordings
3. Attached recordings to their corresponding songs
4. Created setlist using three of these songs
5. Placed a link between each of the three songs
6. Turned on Auto-Advance in app control
7. Open the setlist
8. Tap play on the first song's recording at the bottom of the page
9. Song plays, but nothing advances to the next song

What did I do wrong?

Thank you.

Yes  Orange 4 sides as an option would be perfect for my use case.
I do like the Orange better than the Blue

FYI: http://forum.arlomedia.com/index.php/topic,2638.0.html

I'll add to my wish list to make this a selectable option.
