(2015-01-23, 19:41)syncd Wrote: Do you by any chance have any tv show without a title? I had one show with a blank name, now corrected. Crash still happened until a full uninstall reinstall of Kore to clear any cache, so it looks like that handling of Blanks is the issue. TV now works as expected. Music still fails to sync, but is all tagged properly AFAICT (but there's always the chance something slipped through). EDIT: See Addendum below.

(2015-01-23, 19:41)syncd Wrote: Thanks for the feedback Thanks for looking into it ----- Addendum: After another uninstall / reinstall of Kore, I tried a manual sync for Music on the Nexus 7. When I swiped down, the 'refresh' spinner started to appear and then immediately disappeared, with no visual indication that it was still trying to Sync (Just the default 'swipe down to refresh' wording displayed). However, waiting a few minutes, it has now Sync'd Music successfully and manual refresh / sync now works as expected (displaying the spinner for the duration of the sync). TV is now also behaving fully as expected. RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - DarkHelmet - 2015-01-24 Love the look of your remote. Really slick, definitely not as techy looking as yatse. Maybe I just didn't find it, but where is the "toggle to fullscreen" button in the remore section?

It should be solved in the next version. (2015-01-24, 13:44)ReducedToZero Wrote: It does sync in Movies, pull down to refresh works exactly as expected. Odd... If you have any more issues similar to these, please report them (but wait for the next version which should be up today/tomorrow). (2015-01-24, 14:16)DarkHelmet Wrote: Love the look of your remote.

Will take a look. RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - mkortstiege - 2015-01-24 Awesome remote. Mind adding a sort option to the lists? RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - Starscream - 2015-01-24 Installed it, bought you an espresso and crashed the App If you press the line between Addons and Settings, KORE crashes. Anyway: like all the other remotes, on your App is also no information about the rating displayed. Seems that none of the developers ever heard of children So this is my 1st wish: display rating like you do with length and year. Also a filter could be nice and was never senn at another remote. More to come, if rating is implemented PS: thx a lot, great work! RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - syncd - 2015-01-24 (2015-01-24, 14:42)mkortstiege Wrote: Awesome remote. Mind adding a sort option to the lists? I couldn't settle on a couple of options for sorting that i though would be universally helpful (mainly because i personally don't need them), so i decide to let it go as is, and wait for feedback. What option do you think would be useful? (2015-01-24, 16:19)Starscream Wrote: Installed it, bought you an espresso and crashed the App Thanks for the report (and the accurate eye). Will be fixed in the next version. (2015-01-24, 16:19)Starscream Wrote: Anyway: like all the other remotes, on your App is also no information about the rating displayed. Will consider this. I guess i should be setting up a "official request" list. Does anyone know any sites/tools that allow users to include and vote on requests (i know there's uservoice, but never used it). RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - syncd - 2015-01-25 I just published a new version that should be available soon through Google Play. It fixes some reported bugs, adds new actions to the remote (clean/update libraries, toggle fullscreen) and includes French translations (thanks Kowalsky). If you find any issues, please report them. RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - DarkHelmet - 2015-01-25 Woopsie, by fullscreen I did not mean that kodi gets windowed. I meant playback in fullscreen, like when some media plays and you fiddle in the menus of kodi or look for the next music tracks and than hit that button so that the video returns to fullscreen or the music visualization is displayed. Sorry if I expressed that in a wrong way. Gotta say, personally I wouldn't have hidden the fullscreen button that much. Listening to music I use that button quite frequently. Personally gotta say I think the remote section from the old official android remote and the official ios are still the best by far. Also right now there seems to be no button for the context menu. If it was my choice I'd drop the codec button from the remote section and put the context menu there. I guess I won't ever use that codec button.

Sort by name, date added and runtime makes sense for me. Especially date added so new stuff could be sorted on top of the lists. RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - User 250250 - 2015-01-26 It would be super-great if you could publish your application on fdroid since not everyone is using the Google applications RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - syncd - 2015-01-26 (2015-01-25, 23:55)DarkHelmet Wrote: Woopsie, by fullscreen I did not mean that kodi gets windowed.

Sorry if I expressed that in a wrong way. I just realized there's even a specific word for what I mean and unknowingly I used the term "toggle fullscreen", which is also a command. In the list of actions from the keymap wiki I meant the action "Fullscreen" and not "toggle fullscreen". http://kodi.wiki/view/Keymap#Actions RE: Kore - Kodi/XBMC remote for Android - ReducedToZero - 2015-01-28 Hi syncd, Now running the latest version, thanks. I'm still having trouble with sync under a variety of conditions but have narrowed it down a little. Hopefully that helps some. On any screen / section which is unpopulated and shows a default 'refresh' message (the TV library before it's sync'd, a show which has no seasons sync'd yet, a season with no episodes sync'd) then it's hit and miss whether a swipe down to sync will register. I would say 'impossible' to swipe down and sync but I have managed it a couple of times. Once the default message no longer displays (so a show has seasons listed for example, even if it has failed to sync episodes) then swipe down to sync within that show works as expected. In the latest release, if I try to manually sync the whole TV library to get it to recognise a new show / episodes, the spinner appears and never goes away nor actually syncs. I've also noticed that if I watch an episode and then sync the corresponding show in Kore, although the watched status appears to be updated correctly that update isn't displayed on the show screen until you back out of the show and then re enter it. i.e. it doesn't show the tick mark until the next time you go into the show in Kore. Last entirely unrelated bits, more like feature requests. When playing Music, the aspect ratio for the album cover on the now playing / remote control screen is not square but is instead a poster. Would be great if it was square. When in the remote control screen, have you considered hijacking the Android device volume keys to control Kodi volume? This is done in a number of other Apps (Squeezer for the squeezebox players for example) and works really well.

I understand that the spinner disappearing is very confusing, but afaict it's a bug on the standard "pull to refresh" control and i haven't gotten around to mess with it. What i suspect is happening is that you pull, it starts syncing, and if you continue pulling it will issue more sync requests. Eventually the first one ends and refreshes the list. Try pulling down once, ignore the disappearing spinner and wait to check if it refreshes the list.

Do you have a very large library or is your media center somewhat limited in performance? I have set it up to sync incrementally, but it still can take some of time if the library is large. Anyway, i'll keep this in mind, and think about ways to make it better.

This can happen. Kore is not very "aggressive" in maintaining all the info synced (meaning that when you're browsing your library it is mainly using it's local info, instead of going to your media center), but i guess this can be bettered.

Using the volume keys requires more permissions (control hardware keys i think), which i'm not particularly fond of. Nevertheless, i'm not oposed and i'll consider it. You could open an issue on github, to keep track of it and see if more people would want that.

Library is of medium size (so in the 1000s rather than hundreds), the media centre is a Mac Mini running a minimal Ubuntu, so plenty of grunt. Other stuff that calls JSON seems fine (Chorus used regularly, Music Pump used just to compare).

Damn useful feature though Added as an issue on GitHub. Just wanted to say, nicest app based remote I've used with Kodi. so thanks for sharing it |
