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

@spitz66:
Some basic info would be nice and helpful... I've never experienced that and no one else seems to have reported a similar issue that I'm aware of.

Sorry, running Constellation v2.2.1 on an iPad2 and XBMC Eden Final with PVR support.

Setting "unwatched only" flag in movie view results as the example with Alien movie set below:

HTTP Connection fine, but no RPC

Again, the remote works ok, just nothing else.

Same here though it was working with the beta3 version of xbmc... (ipad version 2.2.1)
It's a very great app, i hope it will work again soon !

I can't get Wake On Lan to work anymore.. This worked perfect for about 1 month ago. I can't tell if it's Constellations which fails, or the new XBMC? (I have been running eden pre. releases for almost ½ year). So i suspect Constellation for not waking my computer anymore :/

Hi there, I've checked my configuration for you. I run the latest eden release and XBMC Constellation. All works fine.
Did you set the PME or WOL correct? You might did a bios reset which set this on default /Off.

Just wanted to say that it SHOULD work.


Question of my own
I've set up my WOL, I wanted to know if i can trigger (start XBMC) with the constellation app? Is there some kind of plugin which lets me start my XBMC from Windows 7? I dont like to install another app to start XBMC from my ipad 2...

Thanks in advance

JSON works with Eden final release. There must be some new changes to the protocol with the nightlies which the guys at FSS havent changed in constellation, knowing what it was like for the nightlies in the run up to Eden the devs were great at providing nightly build support so they may do that again for the v12 nightlies, who knows!

I have had endless trouble with wake on LAN with my pc running win xp, and in contrast no problems with it on my laptop running vista, I'm using Eden final release and v 2.2.1 constellation, my best guess would be like Peter1987 suggested, a setting you changed, or a driver update?

Someone asked this exact question the page before this, and another ask back some time... I know the devs are looking to add this in a future release, but it's low on the priority list.

I don't know if it would be possible to make a hack job if you are desparate using constellations custom commands to send a trigger to your comp to run a script to start xbmc... Absolutely no idea if it's possible to do it that way!

First of all, love the app mate, you've done very well!

So I updated to the latest version when it came out the other day. I was hoping to get thumbnail and description for YouTube videos in the video playlist. I did read that this would be fixed in the latest version and just wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing something wrong?

Love Constellation, purchased it after barely a day and have been using the ipad version for at least half a year by now.

I only just got around to trying it on my iPhone (4S), and I'm having a pretty nasty problem that I'm not sure how to fix.

I connect just fine, browse my library, thumbnails work etc.. but once I start playing something, the app becomes unresponsive for ~5 seconds, then crashes.
Restarting the app shows the UI for a couple of seconds, where it tries to browse somewhere, then it crashes instantly.
In fact, any attempt to start the app while a TV Show is playing will crash the app. Once playback is over, the app can start fine again.
In the meantime, the ipad just works without issue.

I'm using v. 2.2.1, connecting to an XBMC Dharma installation on a Win7 box (think it's a 10.1).

Any help in resolving the issue would be appreciated.

I cannot wait for the Android version of this app. I don't have an iPad but I have been admiring this app for some time.

Just wanted to let you know we (Android community) are excited about it coming out!

Yes... I mentioned earlier (somewhere) in this thread that I believe it's due to this ( https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/e65c...443a3312ce ) 'tightening' in the XBMC side...
