Wow, loving this, especially with the remote! Tested fine on my HTC desire HD running android 2.3.5. Will test on my Asus eee pad when I can and post feedback for you!

Thanks for feedback.

New version uploaded 0.9.4



- Adds a full now playing screen with progress bar and more information on current media. (Click on the text in the widget)
- The play button now change from play to pause according to the media state.
- Lots of internal changes / optimizations

Attention for old users, this release need a uninstal of the old application before installing.
Sorry for that but had to move to correct package name and signing key.

All major features are here now. Time for design and details.
If an artist pass here and have nothing better to do

I'm excited to try the newest version.. I was trying to take a screen shot with CM7 on an OGDROID but I kept having force close issues... But everything looks just like your sample pics do.

One thing I have noticed is that sometimes I'll be watching something and leave with my phone before it is over, at which point it seems the widget has a hard time detecting if something is playing or not and doesn't seem to respond as expected (I tried with and without the wifi only setting). Not a big issue, but it will be stuck displaying the last played media and fanart until I either manually refresh the widget or play/stop something (if Im at home). That being said when I am using it and the media ends, the widget and wallpaper respond as I would expect it to... Only when wifi disconnects or I leave the network does that become an issue.

I've been tossing user interface idea around in my head all week, but cant seem to ponder up anything I like the idea of.. If I have a stroke of brilliance or something, I'll be sure to share any ideas!

Well, for battery saving when not connected to network i stop pooling data (also when screen off for example since no api to know when the widget is visible or not).

So in the case you move out it's normal (well for the moment i'll think about handling better that) that the widget stop refreshing.

What i don't see is that if you came back connected with wifi the widget should update.
If i understand correctly what you say :
- you start a film the widget show info
- you move out of wifi range
- you came back in wifi range the widget does not update even after 5 6 sec
- you don't touch the widget but start / stop a media directly from XBMC and the widget updates ?

This is pretty accurate to what I'm experiencing, but its worth adding that the widget it'self updates, just not the wallpaper. But sometimes I'll leave it for a bit and when I come back to it the wallpaper has changed back as expected. I haven't found any pattern to it really, but my phone is usually running on minimum memory anyway so that may contribute to the problem.

OK.

Next version will handle a not connected state that also reset the wallpaper if needed.
So should handle this problem.

Will also add hard keys support in remote and details views.
