Most anticipated addon for Mediaportal!!

indeed! I take it I'll have to update to the new MP 1.2 beta to try this out - if so that'll give me something to do while I wait :)

Im under the impression that aMPdroid doesn't support the Radio functionality of the TV server? I'm a bit old fashioned I guess, but I really like to listen to my radiowebstreams now and then and so so if my GF. (WAF :D) I searched this thread for the word 'radio', turned op zilch. I'd be really missing such a feature.

    You're right, radio is currently not supported. What sort of features would you expect from a radio section?

    Basic functionality; choose a channel from the TV server and play it, I don 't believe there's more on my wishlist :D
    I don't know about plugins for streaming radio, I just use webstreams from the TV server, but perhaps there are possibilities there also.

    but radio is not really important...
    because you can use soooo much apps from market to hear internet-music on your android.

    It's not very high on the priority list but I do want to include radio as well at some point...

    Whether it's important is in the eye of the beholder. Enough android apps of course, but isn't the point of a remote control to control things remotely? Following your line of thought: there are enough apps to listen to MP3's, FLAC's etc on your android device, so why bother? (I myself use Ampache + amdroid, works great)
    The point is: I like to listen to the radio on my HTPC, because in comparison the android sound sucks and having a way of doing that without switching on my TV would be just perfect and probably way faster. Same goes for listening to my musicfiles.
