A new version of XBMC remote is now available for download. Here is a new video of the updated app: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16teDhIGKf0
I will be updating this site with new screenshots when I have time.
New Features:
- Updated Now Playing Screen with Remote
- I had lots of requests for a "remote" where users could use the remote like a standard remote, but I couldn't get over the problem of not being able to feel what I was clicking on. As a solution, I created a gesture-based remote, and utilized the native webos gestures to control XBMC. Here is an explanation:
Joystick: The transparent button in the center of the screen acts as a joystick. Drag it up, down, left, or right to send directional controls to XBMC. Drag Bar: Dragging from just below the joystick up, will open the menu while browsing, and the info dialog during fullscreen playback.
Command Menu: The command menu for playback controls are now available everywhere else in the app as well.
Fullscreen Toggle: In the bottom left corner, there is a button to toggle fullscreen playback.
- Caching
- I have added caching to all info while browsing library mode. This means lightning fast load times while browsing your media. No more waiting for thumbnails to download from the server.
- Updated Playlist Screen
- The playlist screen has been updated and allows shuffle, and repeat toggling. It also allows you to delete items from the playlist.
- Bugfixes
- All known bugs are fixed with this release.
The full version is now available in the App Catalog for $3.95 (I am working on an update that fixes all the known bugs. In addition, I have also enabled the remote control functionality.)
Download the Lite version from Preware in the palm-web feed or by clicking this link from your phone:
