Version 0.2 Submitted to App store (Waiting approval)

Whats new in Version 0.2
1) Added Music Video Support
2) Changed TV Shows navigation - No more waiting for download of all season information. Also all TV seasons,episodes of a TV show are shown in a single screen now.
3) Organised the gestures and actions into proper sections for easier access.
4) Playing video items now clears the video playlist and adds the item into the video playlist.

Next up
1) We have downloads from people in 25 countries now in a week. Wow, I am overwhelmed. Thanks for the support. Keep downloading and giving feedback.
2) Next version(0.3) - addition of a configurable remote which am working on. Suggestions welcome.
3) File browsing and picture browsing are lower priority now.
4) I have ordered for a TV tuner card and freeview antenna (in UK). Let me check out the mythTV+XBMC combination and then try and implement PVR support as well. But this will obviously take some time.

Will give it ago.

Edit had a quick play. Seems ok. But wont be changing from the official remote app. I dont see what this offers that the official xbmc remote doesnt offer (for me anyway).
Also, the button remote seems quite poor to me. I think theres room for improvement there. Which is the main reason that i prefer the official app.
Gesture pad works great though.

Keep it up

Really sorry that I cant help much. I know how you feel. But with limited resources, I have to make these choices to begin supporting only the 80%+ market. If there is enough user base to justify 3Gs support(which is highly unlikely), a rethink might happen in future.

Thanks for your feedback. The primary difference between the official app and mine is that you dont have to keep pushing and popping views one on top of the other. I didnt like that and thats the reason I made this app to begin with. There are also more options to search, sort etc. Then, you have the added benefit of custom gesture remote. Yes, feature wise, it has a few more features and gradually I will get there and more hopefully with the continued support. Thanks for your feedback on the button remote, and I agree with you that it is very basic and poor at the moment. That is where the custom remote which is being developed now will come into the picture. I will assure you it will be as good as the custom gesture remote if not better. A couple of weeks or more, that feature should be out. Will PM you then to try the update Smile.

P. S: The app now has downloads from folks in 35 countries (Thanks guys).
