Once I was able to forward a link to a movie trailer to my XBMC box. At that time it happened accidentally. But I can't reproduce it. Confused
It happened when I long-pressed the link to the trailer in my browser. (the normal android browser) I got a "sent to xbmc" option in the context menu.
But not any more. Does anyone know how to enable it again?

It would be nice to have XBMC remember your Movie and TV show library so when your not connected to XBMC you can see what movies/tv shows you do and don't have. I know they have DVD Collection Apps, but one integrated into XBMC Remote would be better.

Current HTPC:
Mobo: DFI Lanparty NF4 SLI-D nForce4 Socket 939 ATX
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice 2.2GHz Socket 939 Single-Core
Memory: 1GB (2 x 512) OCZ Premier Series PC-3200 (400 MHz @ CL 2.5-3-3-7)
Storage: 500GB Maxtor SATA Hard Drive
Soundcard: AuzenTech HDA X-Mystique 7.1
Vidcard: XFX HD-645X-ZQH2 Radeon HD6450 1024MB

I would like to be able to use the android keyboard when inputting text. That would be sweet.

+1 to this. I've been using Gmote to input text from my phone when needed and it works well enough but it'd be awesome if this was integrated into the XBMC remote app directly somehow.

I've been trying to figure this out, too! I can launch videos from the Engadget app through XBMC Remote, but I'm dying to find a good way to browse and launch a broader collection of videos. Any thoughts?
