I upgraded to the newest release of XBMC yesterday and the remote stopped working. It's connecting to XBMC but nothing happens when I'm pushing the buttons. The HTTP-commads is still working but the xbmc-buttons doesnt.

Has anyone else had this problem?
What is the different between xbmc 11 and 12 that is doing this?

got the same issue here,don't know how to work this out

The underlying remote control stuff on XBMC's end (just to simplify the explanation) has been changed in 12, so all remote apps have to be updated to support it.

I loved this particular app, and its a shame its no longer being supported.

Definitely the best app for XBMC - so customizable...

but then WTF! no support for a paid app... for a fully supported and ever advancing media KING, XBMC - it's not like XBMC are going to fade out but definitely keep growing.
Collect3 could be raking in the dollars now but choose not to... as there are new users every day.
I have tweeted, emailed and fb'd but no response from collect3... makes one wary of their other apps

It's going to be a shame to change platforms or spend money on another, meh, app

who else is using which remote and how is it??

And it doesn't even mention on their website nor iTunes that it does not support XBMC12, so there might be even people buying it, only then finding out it is useless. Can we leave some user comments at iTunes that the app has now become worthless ?

Hey, I just bought this app 2 days ago...been struggling to get it to work for 2 days.

Let me just get this straight...are you telling me that this xbmc remote app that I paid for does not work with xbmc?

The app from Collect3 does not work with XBMC12. There are a couple of others that have been updated, I would advice XBMC Commander for the iPhone and iPad, works great.

That remote was for an older version of XBMC, the developer of the app has not updated since. I suggest you use the Official XBMC IOS remote found HERE
