React native track player doesn't show "skip to next" button in background menu for some Android phones

[nicksoft2020]

React native track player works on Samsung phone correctly, but it does not show "skip to next" button in background menu for other Android phones like Redmi 9. I use 4.0.1 version of react native track player.

I tried to use all available properties for Capabilities such as notificationCapabilities, compactCapabilities and capabilities, but it did not help me to fix an issue for Redmi 9 phone. There is setup track player function code below:

`try { await TrackPlayer.getCurrentTrack();

isSetup = true;

} catch { await TrackPlayer.setupPlayer(); await TrackPlayer.updateOptions({ android: { appKilledPlaybackBehavior: AppKilledPlaybackBehavior.StopPlaybackAndRemoveNotification, }, capabilities: [ Capability.Play, Capability.Pause, Capability.SkipToNext, Capability.SkipToPrevious, Capability.SeekTo ], compactCapabilities: [ Capability.Play, Capability.Pause, Capability.SkipToNext, Capability.SkipToPrevious, ], progressUpdateEventInterval: 2, });

await TrackPlayer.setRepeatMode(RepeatMode.Off);

isSetup = true;

} finally { return isSetup; }`

See my package.json

its bc ur current exoplayer queue is the very last item and your android version is < 13. maybe setting exoplayer repeat mode to repeat helps, u can try taht.
