Palm OS client?

alexeix · 2006-09-15, 15:35

I see that there's a PocketPC client for Media Portal...

Are there any Palm OS fans in the development team?

Any chance of a similar client for the Palm platform?

The Salling Clicker software does something similar for Windows Media Player or iTunes, but I suppose it wouldn't interface directly with Media Portal and would only allow playback of music.
Thanks.

Nope, there isn't... The client was a user's submission.

Just brainstorming: "wouldn't it be great" if a generic html-ish/java/any thing most browsers "eat" based remote utility be available? So you can log in from your hip wifi phone, laptop, second monitor/touchscreen on same PC/ etc. and remotely control MP?

Not offering to create anything I'm affraid, but since I'm gonna buy a Symbian phone + wifi soon, I was wondering (you know, the academic kind of wondering, merely for the fun of wondering) whether some multi-platform remote solution like this would be (at least theoretically) possible?

look for it, html maybe exists (at least partially)

as for palm, better just switch device to a real one

Well Bram is working on a webbased client. That should work on all kind of devices:

Webbased remote control using PHP

Thanks. I think I could set up a Bluetooth internet connection from the Palm to the PC, so that would be perfect.

(and when some dev adds better menu handling, multiple calls to modules and plugins with different options and much better dbase handling, it will be love... ah and a nice 3D front end and inter-module messaging system and...) Don't argue with the founder of Greek Off-Topic Community about taking a thread off-topic. I cannot help it! My webshots album (contains the old version of my HTPC setup too)
