I set the Timeout to 0 and got a Socket Timeout after 10 seconds.

I also noticed this, setting it to 30000 seemed to work though but still results in the same error, I'll post an updated log tomorrow if there's anything more in there with a timeout of a minute or so.

Don't know if you are aware of it, but the "Now Playing" dialog crashes for me when I play an episode. It correctly displays music information though.

Yes, Enable debug logging

Added: About screen
Fixed: "Now playing" has basic video support (yes, end time still messed up)

Download v0.5.6

First of all thanks for your great work. It works quite well for me.

I do have a feature request. Maybe you have already discussed this. It would be great if it would support multiple xbmc configuration.
I do have two xbmc setups and would like to be able to control both, by switching the configurations instead of changing the configuration each time I want to use the other media center.

I hope this fits somehow into your feature list.

I'm already on it mweb Smile

This sounds great. Thx.

Great work with the About page, looks really nice. It was over my expectations. Smile And thanx not only to the fast response in this thread, but for the fast response in the development of this great app.

The Google Code link in About page needs to have a look-over, but I guess you already aware of that.

For the development of this app it would be nice to see a dvd- or BD-cover, in the Now Playing page, or maybe both? If its possible to arrange so it displays each cover on each film type.

Hey guys

Again, great work on the app. looks like it is comming along fast.

I have a few feature suggestions:

1) A soft volume button on the now playing screen

2) Stop the beeping when using the hard volume buttons, if possible.

3) Fast forward and fast rewind functionality from the now playing screen

4) A configuration option to keep the app in portrait view

5) configuration option to stop the phone from sleeping and locking up. can be a little anoying having to unlock the phone everytime i go for the remote.

cheers

Hi guys, same problems under 0.5.6 just posting an update in case any of this helps solve things. I'm not sure the socket timeout value in the configuration settings is actually doing anything, regardless of value I still receive a timeout after 10 seconds.

Here's an updated log from the xbox with debugging enabled of what happens when I try and view albums

and another remote log is here this time with timeout set to 60000 instead of 0

And:

6) Go automatically to "now playing screen" when queuing or doing a "play album" or song.

7) Show fan and album pictures. Mine doesn’t anyway...

8) Volume bar in "now playing screen"

9) Keep up the good work! Rofl

Oh my god, this looks so perfect. Any chance for anyone to recompile it for Windows smartphones like Omnia? It seems there are lots of great remotes for iPhone, for Android, and none for WM...
Cheers

You don't know much about coding do you :p

It's not just to recompile to get it to work on a completely different device, it's even another programing language on a WM.

But it's open source so if anyone wants to take some influences from our code and make a WM version they are more than welcome.

Cheers,
Tobias.
