XBMC Constellation For iPad/iPhone by FSS.cc (unofficial remote)

One small issue. Despite having my TV shows set to Poster, i'm seeing banners for some of the shows. Not sure how this happened as about a week ago it was showing posters just fine. The layout is fine, just the images are wrong.

@mdespault:
This is the first I've heard of this issue... It's odd that both devices are connecting to the same XBMC install with different results. Just curious, which model iPhone and iPad are they and which version of iOS are on each? Although it's great you found a work around for your issue, just remember that those four characters wont work properly from either device now if you need to actually use them for text input.

@Newsboy:
First, can you try to dump the image cache, force quit the app, then restart it and see if that corrects the problem on next sync? If not, please write back with more details (Host OS, XBMC Version, Constellation Version, iOS Device/Version, etc) so we can try to come up with more ideas to help.

Gave that a try only to get the same result.
Running Win 7, XBMC Version 11, Constellation v2.2.1, iPhone 4 running iOS5.1.1

I'm thinking of using this when my htpc is up and running, but can I browse my movie collection when my htpc is offline?

Do you have other devices to test this with? Did you recently change any settings in XBMC itself? Lastly, if you try to view the shows in XBMC do the same ones show banners there as well? I can't think of any reasons it'd be doing this unless (doubtfully) it has something to do with iOS 5.1.1 (I'm still running iOS5 on all my devices)

This app doesn't (currently) support an offline copy of the database, therefore your HTPC system has to be online and reachable from your iOS device at the time you want to look through your library.

Being really cheeky here, but waaaaaay back on pg 104 there's a post from FSS_Dawid re the Android version and hopefully after Q1 2012 (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid970581)

Was just after an update if at all possible? How you chaps getting on with it, and do you need testers?

@nsviper:
PM Dawid here on this forum with the subject line: "Android Beta" and in it, include the type of Android device you have and an email address to best reach you at. If/when added to the beta group, you'll need to create an account on the Constellation forums (link in my signature) and PM me your username there and after I verify your status I'll unlock access to the Beta area on those forums.

As far as actual status update, as I stated a few posts back, since I don't have Android devices I've sadly not really paid attention to the status, so as far as I know, it's still being worked on, but I have no idea how far it's gotten.

Sorry to ask again but I haven't seen a reply to this yet...

What's the status on getting Youtube video thumbnail/description when added to the video playlist? At the moment they just show up blank. A few pages back it was mentioned that this would be fixed in the latest update but it doesn't look like it has.

Thanks!

Hi

No major issue, only that I'm using the new ipad with constellation with ATV2 and the play button in the remote control does not change to the pause button when something is playing to indicate you can pause it.
When you touch it to pause, the playback on the TV does pause, but the pop up "playback started" comes up on the ipad.

Small bug, but needs repair methinks as it could lead to confusion.

I haven't given up on making the XBMC Commands feature in Constellation work. As a demonstration on what I want to achieve and how it fails, I want Constellation to send XBMC the command to show codec info while showing a video in Fullscreen. The XBMC action name for this is CodecInfo and it is mapped to the letter 'o' in keyboard.xml.

So, in Constellation's Command interface, I build a new command of the type 'XBMC Standard key' and select the letter 'O' (only capital letters and digits are listed). This command fails to do what I want.

From XBMC.log I can see that Constellation sends a different code than my Windows keyboard, although both are named 'o'.

For my keyboard, that works just find when hitting 'o', I have in the log:

For Constellation, which fails, I have in the log:

Is this a bug in Constellation, or in Eden, or do I just have to make new entries in keyboard.xml?
