That i can't browse by genre is no problem. My guess is this will also be brought to the JSON api. So it will work eventually.

HHmm, then I'm really have no idea. As On my test the gesture is work, just only left the Genre issue.

Or try change the proxy for xmbcCmds as
Code:
<Location /xbmcCmds>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:8080/xbmcCmds
</Location>

Got it working in a few minutes on the Blackberry Torch 9800. Running Dharma beta 4, installed through add-ons browser.

Very cool, the only thing I can't figure out is how to do back/previous/7 seconds back, not implemented or am I just missing it?

Is there any way to change the horizontal scrolling so that it acts like the vertical scrolling i.e. many items at once rather than one at a time? Great application by the way.

** FIXED **

Sorted it myself, for anyone who is interested in doing this, it's actually quite easy. In addons/webinterface.wtouch/ you need to find and edit index.html

Locate the line

Quote:var multipleX=false;


and change false to true. Reboot your system and you're good to go Smile

** NOT FIXED **

Unfortunately after playing with it for a bit I have noticed that you can't use the swipe controls for the Display GUI and Back when you have multiple scrolling enabled. Gonna keep messing about with it and see if I can come up with something that works.

I'm not sure the problems that you have. Basically the gesture remotes is just mimicking keyboard keystrokes:
  • Left Arrow (Swipe Left)
  • Right Arrow (Swipe Right)
  • Up Arrow (Swipe Up, may do multiple time)
  • Down Arrow (Swipe Down, may do multiple time)
  • Escape (Swipe Left, then Right at once stroke)
  • Tab (Swipe Right, then Left at once stroke)
  • C/property (Tap and Hold)
  • M/Media Control (Tap on Media Panel when it shown)
So if function that you need is not cover with that keyboard keypress, it would not work on wTouch. May I know what kind of keys that you need?

Anyway, I'm happy that you try on Torch, so I know at least Torch support for touch event on their browser Smile

I'm afraid the problem is not on wTouch.
Make sure that the option "Allow Control of XBMC via HTTP" is checked/on.
And make sure you know the Ip Address of your XBMC, you can check on System Info - Network in your XBMC.
Then connect to the ip on your iPod Touch, remember the default port of XBMC web is 8080, unless you change it.
Try http://(ipaddress):8080 --change the (ipaddress) with your XBMC IP Address, and the port 8080 if you change the port in XBMC setting.

You may need to check your windows firewall, wether it allow access for port 8080 or no.

Well, yes you may have the problem. I'm tricking and used the non multiple on X, to able have more gesture for ESC and TAB. Thus I made the left and right not do key stroke multiple time.
This may lead issue on some Skin that have horizontal selection, But I have to make a choice with the limited option.

But I'm still open to more suggestion and will try find way and solution Smile

This works really well, so much better than gesture mode in xbmc remote app. Is it possible to configure the gestures? For example, pinch to lower volume, expand to raise volume etc.

Another frequent function I used is the 'i' <info> key. Could this be added? Swipe up with two fingers maybe?

Excellent work!

Will try to think about it.
But, I'm not sure that will work on android. As at first, about 6 months ago, android browser still not support multi touch event, while mobile safari support up to 3 multitouch event.

I guess I'm mostly looking for the backspace to get back to the parent directory in library mode. Currently I'm using tap and hold and going back to the root.

The torch is the first bb with a usable browser, thanks of course to webkit.
