No that option fails... it was one of the things I was initially looking at.

My layman's guess is a routing issue on ampdroid android app now..

  i.e. for it to issue the start mediaportal.exe power command successfully it uses 4322 TCP and from then until a new session starts it fails to route remote control traffic via 8017 TCP. Not sure why as the advanced client config caters for that very topic.  Anyway I can live with a function key to start the app.
