    Re: AW: Re: [Android] aMPdroid 0.7 - Android Remote Control

    so what about the technique kroko used in his android app, streaming via vlc player? worked quite good and would be much better than having to dl gigabytes of movies (for an hd movie) onto the rather small smartphone (currently 8gb sdhc storage...)
    That's the plan (but with ffmpeg instead of VLC), but making that plan happen is unfortunately not so simple as it seems ;)

    Re: AW: [Android] aMPdroid 0.7 - Android Remote Control

    I have installed all necessary Services (TV4Home, GMA, WiFIRemote) as described in first post and Wiki. but can't get it to work completely. I can control my client with the remote and I can see all TV server related stuff like EPG, Recordings,... I also can access GMA with the browser on my phone so the connection is working, I think. But I can't access my media within aMPdroid. Everytime I push "Videos" or "Music" Button I will get a "no connection to service" error. With Pictures and Settings I get an "Not implemented yet" message, so this seems to be normal. Pushing "Remote" and "TV works as expected.

    I have tried all things mentioned in Troubleshooting but nothing helps...
    Did someone know what went wrong?
    What is returned by the testlinks from the wiki (GetSeries, GetVideos,...)?

    I haven't installed VPlayer now. Is VPlayer necessary for accessing the Media???
    vPlayer is only needed for tv playback!


    Also the feature voting section is way to quiet for my taste -> go vote for your favorite feature at UserEcho.com - Customer feedback 2.0 Creative ideas for Your projects
    I do have some issues/requests in mind, but they are mostly related to low resolution displays :). You said you'll deal with lower resolutions later, so I'll wait for that first.

    That's why I created this site, so everyone can say what they want and vote for things they want. If many people want better low-res support it will get higher priority...

    Now I can compile! Thank you!

    Do you have somewhere in svn the photoshop-originals for the icons?
    Currently not as my media folder is a bit messy (also I lost a few to a hdd crash)... Do you need any specific files?

    @DieBagger and polarie

    :D for the help. All is working now after I updated my Archos 7 to Android 2.2.

    One Question, how can I stop the aMPdroid on my Archos? For the moment I must shutdown the
    Archos.


    Remote Control:
    Remote control working - But would really like to be able to have some buttons for channel up and down.
    And maybe icon to show numbers 1-9 to use with channel change.
    TextTV (TXT) button would also be nice
    EPG button
    I think there is room for more than the std. buttons.
    Maybe different buttons for when watching TV, Music etc. and make it custimizable/personalization choose the buttons of own choice for what is shown on Televsion screen TV, music, movies etc.

    +1

    some more buttons were very helpful.

    spike

    +1

    for inspiration you should take a look on samsung android remote app. very nice this remote

    regards

    I only need one with the side button ("..." or "i")...

    I want to implement channel up and down in the menu!
    Generally it would be very nice, if there are screens like the home-screen in android with few sites which are configurable by user ;)

    Diebagger, can you tell us when the feature 'play whole disk" Is being implanted? Now you can only play song for song?

    Those, I actually don't have. You'll have to contact thundercats.

    This is much more complicated as it seems on first glance.
    • Play all files on MediaPortal: This needs playlist support for the WifiRemote plugin
    • Play all files on Mobile: This isn't possible with Android as there is no way to call music (or video) apps with multiple items. For music there will be a workaround in the next version that uses an external app (just playlists).

    Hello.
    What is returned by the testlinks from the wiki (GetSeries, GetVideos,...)?
    Sorry that I don't answer faster but I had a crash on my network as my router was dead. Now I have my network set up again with a new router. I do some more tests. If I connect to my HTPC from my Laptop I got a csv- alike File with something like this inside (too big to add it complete)

    But if I try to download this csv on my phone I get an error message saying "File type is not supported to download" in German "Herunterladen nicht möglich, Inhalt nicht unterstützt". So it seams my HTPC is set up correct but I mess something on my Android phone, but did not know what. BTW I use the HTPC IP to connect...
