It seems really nice, but the screen layout is totally broken at VGA resolution... I guess I'll have to wait a bit for the next release Smile

Hi, the video and music sections work great. I really like the application!

A couple feature suggestions:
1. A "play all" for a directory in music file view.
2. Playlist management. I don't care about it much, but it would be nice.
3. My up, down, left right buttons "hard" buttons don't work. I don't know if this is my hardware or the software. Only touschsrceen can navigate the directories. This will be an issue for people with non-touchscreen pda phones.

Of course I love it even without those features.

I can do some testing now that i just got a new phone to replace my other one (just wasn't tech enough anymore for me.) that's a QVGA with WM6.1 on it. (just upgraded to 6.1 rom from 6.0 today)
Looks great from the pictures, agreeably we needed a better and nicer remote compared to the textbox looking other one (don't mean that as a put down, but that's truthfull to most extent.) And this is looking great!!! Nice job!!!! Smile

Huhn - It looks great, but I can't seem to connect. I put in the ip address of the xbox, but the status bar at the top reads:

<xbox IP address> Disconnected
Click on Setting

I'm connected via wifi, but nothing. I can't seem to figure this out, and assume I'm just a retard. Any help?

thanks to all....

the look isn't good for me, it's too "confusing" and a pda or phone with a little display, it could have difficulty to read the text button.
I feel rewriting the code of buttons Rolleyes

But, you could answer these questions?
- The listbox, works fine? it's too slow or too fast?
- the "info" scrolling it's ok?
- can you see file and archive?

thanks
bye

So, yeah - it turns out I'm an idiot, and didn't have the web server turned on.

I love the looks of this, and think it's a good use of the limited space available on a qvga screen!

Some odd things did happen, though:

1. While browsing movies (which are stored remotely on the network), the controller would frequently boot me out of the list and back to the first screen. I got the INFO button to work a few times, and it did not disappoint, although cast information would be nice.

2. In the list view, the REMOTE button didn't seem to do anything, even while playing a file, but I suspect it just hasn't been implemented yet.

Everything else looks great! I can't wait to be able to control everything from my phone!

One last thing - is the application speed because my media is remote, or will it always take a while to get information and execute commands because of the machine I'm using?
