+--- Thread: [SYMBIAN][v0.9.6] semperXbmc, a remote control app for Symbian in Qt/QML (/showthread.php?tid=105988)

Hi,
It means the app could not connect to XBMC in "JSON" mode.
Please check the web port you are using (80 by default, I think) and that no username/password are specified (no yet supported by semperXBMC)

Changing ports to 8080 on both the phone and XBMC fixed it.
I'm completely blown away by this application.

Glad you appreciate

Working fine with N8 Belle firmware.
- Koying - 2011-08-18
Hehe... Good to know
- roodgras - 2011-08-25
belle, how did you get belle on your N8?
- Jakob Rosenberg - 2011-09-04
Sorry for getting a little off topic, but how does Belle perform in terms of stability and compatibility?

Oh nice, symbian^1 support.
Thanks
I'll test and report.

Huh, can't get it to work on a S^1 phone.
Installed the dependencies and stuff but it's not launching the app.

Symbian^1 version working good in my 5800xm.
E: fresh 52.0.101 CFW + QT4.7.3 + Webkit1.1.3 + components
- paendorz - 2011-09-22
After a hard reset and dependencies/app reinstalled I got it to work on my S^1 device. Great job, Koying.
Any chance to add a feature to connect to the server via bluetooth?
- Koying - 2011-09-22
Glad you got it working on S1, guys
It's hard to be sure with Qt when you cannot test on a stock phone.

XBMC, unless there is a feature I'm unaware of, requires a network connection.
If you can succeed in making a Bluetooth PAN connection with your xbmc box, it should work, but it's out of the scope of semperXbmc...

Does this application work over 3G from my phone to my desktop, provided that I open the appropriate ports?

Short Answer: Yes
Long Answer:
Think of XBMC as a web server (which it really is). If you can use XBMC web interface from a device, (i.e. providing you can reach your XBMC box thru TCP/IP somehow, and the port are open/forwarded), you can use semperXbmc.
Note that the "Remote Control" interface uses UDP, though, and that UDP is sometimes more difficult to route/tunnel.
But if you can ping your XBMC box, semperXbmc (or any XBMC remote control app on any OS) should work.
