*Sorry for the low-framerate video - I need to re-record it on a better computer.

Note that XBMC Remote is a libary browser and remote control. It does not stream videos or music to your phone.

The first post has been updated to include some pictures and a description of v1.1 of the app. One of the big features in v1.1 is the "Now Playing" feature which can be accessed by clicking the Play/Remote button at the bottom of any page.

Basically, it lets you get a quick view of what's currently playing from anywhere in the app - and provides you with a basic set of quick controls.

The next version of the app will include a revamped Remote Control section and will further integrate the Now Playing feature with the revamped remote control.

Working on an interim update for the latest Eden pre-release changes. The library features are all updated to work with the new JSON system - just working on updating the Now Playing features for the latest pre-11 release. I should have an update submitted to Microsoft by the weekend.
