With a touch remote I can just keep my finger on the down button whereas with the gestures solution I have to wipe down constantly until the end of the touchscreen is reached. I know this might sound like a small thing but with a list of music artists of over 2000 artists it takes a long time to scroll down to ZZ Top, which takes me to the next small thing.[...]

Quote:Cheers, i just dont know if i should by an apple tv for the front end as i am trying to find a good front end to run my server as I have a ps3 and going to sell it and use your xbmc remote on the ipad when i get one with a front end that can handle xbmc but what to use in it's place

what do you use or your setup

Quote:Problem 1

when i get a new info on a show i just added but only has 1 season the poster art does not work ? On TVDB there is no poster season picture for the show so i made my own and placed it in the season 1 folder like i do with all my shows.
it seems that if there is no folder art on TVDB and you add your own the iphone or ipad does not display the poster cover for that season.
also the same for thumbs if there is none on TVDB and XBMC auto cache its own thumbs XBMC commander will not display them to
basicly if its not on TVDB it does not show up on the remote even if you add your own poster and thumbs

is there a way to fix this

Quote:Problem 2

Subtitles when you use your subtitles button to turn on and off it works perfectly but if the movie has forced subtitles for none english speaking parts of the movie and you want to turn on full subtitles you can not do this. It only lets you turn on forced subs on or off you can not choise full englsih subs you can not seem to select other subtitle tracks

is there a way to fix this thanks maybe you just keep hitting subttiles button to scroll the tracks instead so it turns them on then as you tap it scrolls all the subtitle tracks untill the end and then it turns off, or even 2 subtitles buttons one for on and off and another for which subtitle track you want to select by scrooling them

Also maybe adding an audio selector to so that you can change different audios

Quote:Especially in the music section I'd love some kind of shortcut which makes me jump to my artists starting with "k" or "o" or "z" instead of having to scroll down for quite some time. Most of my other apps have a vertical alphabetical list of letters on the very right side of the screen where the scrollbar is.

Quote:And finally I'm a huge fan of music videos and music playlists. Both quite underrated features of xbmc imo judging from the forum. Neither of these are supported by the remote. It would be sweet to have these supported by your remote.

Quote:I just wanted to know if anybody else is experiencing that the remote sometimes seems to stick and keeps repeating. I've had a couple of instances where it just keeps going to the right

Quote:Will try that out. I have two xbmc devices, one on a windows pc and one on an apple tv 2. Gestures don't work at all on my windows machine, shortcuts work rarely, mostly they're not even there (the short cuts screen on my ipod touch is just empty).

Quote:Some strange things happen in the remote when using this. The playlist view makes the app crash occasionally, maybe when the addon adds songs to the playlist. The names of the songs ahead from the one playing right now are not shown. Instead the paths to the songs are displayed. Since they are however on a NAS connected with samba the names of the paths are too long so every song is called "smb://NAS-Server/Qmultimedia/MP3/..." I know this is most probably a feature or a program only used by a handful of people but still, in case you find the time, I'd appreciate you having a look at what's happening here.

Quote:In playlist view I guess the app intends to show the now playing song on top of the list. It does however scroll just a little too low.

Quote:Another idea for a feature... Option to keep screen alive when XBMC commander is active.

I decided to live on the edge and upgraded to the latest XBMC nightly build (April 9) and now Commander just gives me a black screen on movies, TV and music. I can't go back to an official Dharma release as they have changed the file structure apparantly!

I deleted the cache but that was no help.

DON'T UPGRADE TO THE LATEST XBMC NIGHTLY BUILD!!!!
