The Official XBMC Remote is incredible. I have it on my iPhone, my wifes, and our iPad. I use it to control XBMC on our Raspberry Pi.

I just purchased an Amazon Fire TV and loaded up XBMC on it. When I try to connect The Official XBMC Remote app to it, it's a no go.

The IP Address of the Amazon Fire TV is 192.168.1.135. When launch XBMC, and checking the network information, the IP Address is 192.168.1.135. Same thing.

Is there a conflict here that will prevent me from using XBMC Remote with XBMC on Amazon Fire TV?

XBMC is simply nowhere near as good without this amazing app.

Does anyone know?
The xbmc remote works fine on fire tv once you are in xbmc on that device.
