Windows Phone 7 XBMC Remote

Thanks dstruktiv.. I did test on real phone but will look into this again. Thanks for letting me know.

BTW, there is a trial version which should be a good way to test without worrying about charge. Its fully functional so shoudl give a good idea of look and feel.

Thanks for trying and giving me feedback to make it better.

Hi Hello_man,
I found out why I can't connect! I'm not using a dharma build. I will upgrade when a final release is done and try your app again.
As a side note how did they manage to test the application for approval given that it requires xbmc?
I ask because im about to submit a sabznzbd+ app for wm7 and am wondering how it will get approved without them installing sabnzbd!!

Could the remote option be on the main menu, with movies and tv, instead of being on the context menu? Or make the items that appear on the main menu user customizable?

Hey Sabnzbd, thanks for trying. Yeah the approval was real fun. It failed 4 times and required me to add test mode. In additional I setup a test server and shared test credentials for testing.

You should be able to setup a test server if possible and share the credentials. See if that helps. Otherwise, just make sure you explicitly explain the requirements in the app description and leave a note to the testers.

Hope this helps.

Hi Lewisc, thanks for the suggestion. Let me see how best I can do that. Keep suggestions coming.
BTW, did you try the app on phone? how did you like it?

I got the full version the moment it came out and I'm using it on my Samsung Omnia 7. Overall I like the app and the remote interface specifically.

Also would it be possible to pull down the watched flags on movies and tv shows?

Awesome, thanks for trying. Yes, that's definetly one of the feature you can expect in next release (next to next I would say as an update is in testing right now)

Just FYI.. an update went live over the weekend. No new features but better image handling and scrolling performance.
Let me know your feedback
thanks

Is this also compatible with an XBMC installation on an XBOX?
I've multiple XBOX's around the house (living room, terras, bed room,...). Is it possible to switch between different systems like I do on my XBMC remote app for iPhone?

Thanks for your great work. Looks cool and fast!
