[released] Official XBMC Remote for iOS
(2013-03-10, 04:25)Newsleecher Wrote: The 1.2.3 update seemed to have messed up the navigation buttons. Hope you guys are aware of that.

I gotta use constellation app until that is corrected.

If you need better help testing the updates contact me, perhaps I can help.

I just downloaded and install on my iphone 4. Works great (I love it!!!) except the navigation buttons are not functioning. I have to use the "swipe" pad.

Another thing, is it possible to start XBMC via this app? I have autohotkey, it'd be nice to start XBMC via the mobile app (even if it required a program to be running on the OS the entire time).

Thanks,

+1 on this, the only thing I could imagine is if they create a vnc software option, sometimes i have to quit xbmc and relaunch and it requires me to pull out my mce remote or use hippo remote app which is vnc software.

If it could be done somehow else would be incredible.
They have one for Yatse. It looks like it's a .NET app that runs in the background and listens for a WOL command from Yatse. I tried it with XBMC for Android but it didn't work for me. That doesn't mean it's not more universal though. It worked with Yatse and could easily be modded or kept the same and iOS XBMC remote could just send the same command across the network.

I did post long ago a proposal for all remote makers : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=131110

But as you can see not a lot of answers, so I kept it for myself, meaning that :
- In current form I won't allow distribution of it for other remote

But I'm still open to work with other to get something more universal and open source.
In release 1.2.3 remote control does not work. All buttons seem "locked".
I also tried to delete and add again the xbmc configuration, but no luck.
Yep, same here. Updated to 1.2.3 yesterday, but a lot of the buttons on the remote control section don't appear to work.

I am also having this problem. iPad 1st gen, 30GB, model MB293KS, iOS 5.1.1.

First time I have tried to use the app. On launch, screen goes black for a second, then returns to the iPad home screen. As xunil said, the app appears to be open in the dock.

Wouldn't it be as simple as sending a WOL "message" from this program across the LAN to the host? I'm assuming the C# listening program you wrote, listens for a "command" of sorts. If it is a simple command couldn't any of these remote apps easily implement it?

The new version will fix the issues you have with the app crashing, and bring back the four direction arrows functionality.
Also, can this one do trailers?

Hi, newbie here so be gentle with me. I've searched this thread but can't find the answer to my (minor) issues with the remote.

1) When I use long press to queue anything it doesn't work unless there is already something in Now Playing. If I select a track and press play it starts playing and then I can queue albums okay. Is there a setting somewhere which controls this or is it a bug/quirk?

2) I can't find a way to shuffle the Now Playing list, is there one?

I'm running XBMC 12 on a Windows 7 machine.

Thanks for the app and thanks in advance for the help.

Good to know. Thanks for your quick reply.
@digicammad, hi

Strange, seems it works fine here. Are you talking about when browsing the music library or the music files? with files there are some limitations (you can enqueue only folders which don't have any other subfolder).
digicammad Wrote:2) I can't find a way to shuffle the Now Playing list, is there one?
Yes, during the now playing by tapping on the album cover you have the shuffle and repeat buttons (disabled in music party mode due the nature of the music party mode).
Thanks Joe, I won't be able to answer your question definitively until this evening when I get home, but I think it was either way. I am picking up the music from a NAS and this morning made that the default for the music library so there is a chance that may have made it work.

Cheers for the tip about shuffle and repeat. Is there a user guide somewhere as I also don't know what party mode is?

Ian
sure, http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Mus...Party_Mode . The party mode is an XBMC feature. You can enable it with the remote app by clicking on the party mode button.
