Android Yatse - Full featured Xbmc Remote and Widgets for Android & Eden/Frodo

Hey Tolriq just fantastic work. I'm liking how I can see it on the lockscreen now in JB. Just wondering if it is possible in the future build to have the queue list appear on the lockscreen?

I am blown away by this app. Absolutely amazing. The only thing I could think of that would make it even better is volume control via the hardware volume buttons. Keep up the amazing work!

By the way Tolriq the only other place I noticed the wrong size thumbnails was in the now playing section

I have seen that many of your lists are sorted alphabetically from A-Z and then start again from a-z lower case at the end. I had the same problem a while ago in music pump. You can fix this by using COLLATE NOCASE in your sql queries. Just modify your sql query like this:
select * from table where .... order by xy COLLATE NOCASE

@Cuturic : no it's not possible this is limitations of Android.

@lockdown571 : Hardware buttons works in remote and now playing, next version will extend this to all screens.

@skabyss : thanks for feedback.

@Millencolin007 : thanks for information but the problem with NOCASE is that it does not correctly handle Unicode, Android have a special collation named well UNICODE that is there for that but while in the docs they said it's not case sensitive since ICS it has now become case sensitive see : http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/...?id=27053.

I have still not checked if it's still the case in Jelly Bean but since only 30% of my users are English from Google play stats I don't really know what collation to choose

All the android bugs I run into as well... just frustrating

Unicode would be the better solution if it works properly since äöü are still at the end if you use COLLATE NOCASE. And even if only 30% of the users are English from the statistics a much higher percentage listens to English music and most tracks don't start with special characters anyway.

Ho yes so much bugs The more frustrating ones are those that are opens on bug tracker since 4 years and still not handled

The worse for me : http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=16571 and http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2254 I lost so many time not understanding why things does not works as they should.
Now I know that as soon as something is strange first check issues then try to correct if it's my code

About language I must admit I did not think about those stats I was more focused on my library where I have movies like æon flux or L'Âge de glace (with sort tokens ) I think I'll add an option for nocase since it's only problematic in ICS.

Thanks for feedback anyway

This looks great. I cannot for the life of me get the official xbmc remote to work, so I'll be giving this a go tonight!

Okay, I have one more suggestion, and that's to have the now playing screen automatically come up when you press play on a media file. If that were the case, I probably wouldn't mind that the volume controls only work in the remote and now playing screen

Well the volume will work everywhere

And you have a small eye icon in most menus (maybe in overflow or hard menu button) to go to now playing.

Direct going to now playing may not be wanted all the times and there won't be any easy way for the user to disable it when some times he don't want it like queuing songs or tv episodes. Not talking about media that can take long time to start due to buffering for example.

Touching a icon to go to now playing is the simplest and quickest way for all needs
