To remote dev : Starting Xbmc from Remote - Tolriq - 2012-05-09

Hello all,

Since there's a lot's of remote out there and users usually use more than one for specific purpose but often need the same : Start Xbmc from the remote, I propose to try to define a very simple common way for all remote writers.

Something like sending a simple UDP pattern to a configurable port.

On client side we go on a simple open source program that does it's job.

On my side I've already done a simple c# windows program that can fit this need and I hope can be ported to mono to fit Linux and Mac users.

So let me know if others dev are interested in this Smile
