Fixed a bug and improved overall app stability.
The Media Library tab has a new way to navigate to the parent and root folder. Instead of the ".." row at the top of the folder/file list there is now a dedicated "Up" button that takes you to the parent folder. Also, there is now a "Home" button that takes you to the root folder. Next to those is the name of the current folder.
Also included are some fixes that were required for the newer versions of Android, mostly Android 13 & 14.
The Playlist now can be refreshed in the same way as the Media Library, by swiping down to refresh. This release also fixes a bug where the scrollbar on the Playlist would behave strangely for lists that were just a little larger than what fit on the screen.
This release fixes a bug that prevented Ampwifi from auto-detecting Winamp during setup on Android 10+
This release is a response to user feedback and continues to address Android 11's media notification changes. The background controls notification can now be dismissed by double tapping the Stop button.
Android 11 changed how media notifications work. As a result, Ampwifi's background controls notification has no way to be dismissed in a nice way. To address this, Ampwifi 3.2 adds the ability close the notification from the Nexus screen. Also, it will automatically close the notification when your device switches networks.
Ampwifi now features Background playback controls. This means you can send commands to Winamp from a system notification which also appears on the lock screen. Your device volume buttons can now also control Winamp even when using other apps or when the device's screen is off. Google Assistant and Media Session aware Bluetooth devices can also allow control. See docs for full details.

Fixed a number of bugs that would end up crashing the app. This included one which would crash the app when changing the volume while the device was rotating (or just shortly after). I noticed this in the crash logs sent to Google Play and this clearly affected a number of devices. My apologies to those it affected.
