Re: [Android] aMPdroid 0.6 - Android Remote Control

Hi all

My experience.

System: Vista SP2 x86 (main system), (also on 2x Win 7 x64)

Remote: Working
TV: Working after opening the port mentioned in the install guide.
Music: Working
TVSeries: Working
Moving Pictures: Working
Shares: Working
Videos: Not Tested: not sure what suposed to be there :) (guesing the standard videos db)

Use IP not the Host name in setup. (host name not working for me).

Installed this on 3 computers now. and all working grate!
Very very very promising 1 release.
So no bug report for now :)

:D

    Does the below explanation below mean that it is possble when I am at work to connect home with the app and use the same functions, TV, remote control, streaming (when link to the player is fixed) and all the other great functions?

    If possible what should I do?

    Quote: WifiRemote over http: WifiRemote uses TCP so it can send commands fast and receive replies asynchronious.

    Wow - that's some great piece of work!

    Only suggestion from my side - You should put the info about the default User / Password for the Connection (admin/admin) in the first page - this is exactly wheer I also made teh first mistake - using only Hostname for connecting results in working the remotecontrol only. putting admin / admin in makes the Video and Co working.

    What I aldo did (as for some streaming issues over the network with serviio for example) - put a user in teh gwa Webservice which has the rights to acess teh Networkshare (it's my local user and Password instead of teh Local system account).

    What I realy love - teh copy to device - this is some good idea :) - waiting for streamingoption and Tabletsupport :)


    Regards

    Try to press "Menu" on your phone and then select 'Connect'. This helped me.

    Press Menu -> Connect...

    There is a bug (already fixed in svn) where it will say "connection succeeded" even if auto-connect isn't set (so the connection wasn't actually made).

    hi,

    i have a problem with the remote. i have to say that i am testing over internet :) but ports are configured in firewall etc and only same things are not working:

    i can connect to movies and series :)
    but if i try to use remote, every time i try to use a button i have this error: not connected to remote service.
    if i try to connect the program says "connected" but if i try a button the error appears.

    another question: do i have to use different ports for gma service and remote?
    sorry for my bad english ;-)
