The way you have designed the app is clearly for a singleseat environment where Mediaportal and TVServer are installed in the same machine, isn't it? But that doesn't fit with that welcome screen where you have to choose the client to what you are going to be connected. We can consider my personal configuration, that consists in one server PC with TVServer (only) installed and where all the movies, music, videos, tvseries,... are stored, and other 2 pcs with Mediaportal (client) installed that are used to watch TV, movies, listen to music... In this case, I should add three clients in aMPdroid, because I have three different pcs with their own IPs: server pc, kitchen pc and living room pc, right?Imagine that I'm on my living room and I want to see one movie. I take my phone, start the app, select Living Room client, go to Movies section, choose the film and click on "start movie on client". Everything's fine. Movie finishes (and I enjoyed it a lot because it was a Bergman's movie <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />) and now I want to watch news in TV. What should I do in this case? Because I figured out that pressing on the TV icon is not going to work, as TVServer is not installed in my living room client. I should go back, select server client in welcome screen and press tv icon in main menu? If the answer is yes, how can I start the stream in the living room pc if now I'm in the server client?? WTF???? Sorry if I'm missing something really stupid, but I swear that I don't understand how this is going to work. Where is the trick? I really hope that you have considered this case and all is under control ;-)2) I know that you have it in mind, but: multiple language support. I'm ready to translate the app to spanish when you want, just call me ;-) It would be wonderful if you could add the possibility to autochoose the language based on the Android device language. Too much work?3) I would personally change the horizontal context menu that appears when long-pressing in a movie/tvserie and make it a vertical context menu. With the horizontal menu the buttons are too small and you have less space to add more options without having to scroll ("play on device" for example). Anyway, this suggestion is not important at all.4) Add the option to play movies and series in details view, because it doesn't make sense to force the user to go back to play the movie when he has read the description. For movies you can place a "Play" button under the certification label.5) Make the app fullscreen to gain more space. The more I think about the it, the most I realized how important it is; we really need that extra space to handle all the data that the app is going to show.6) In Media Browsing menu, what do you think about adding the option to change between Videos, Movies, Series and Shares moving the finger from left to right and from right to left (just like in Windows Phone 7). Is this possible in Android?7) Less important thing but with more future perspective: tablet layout. This is probably going to be the Android tablets year (with Honeycomb) and an app like this can be the most important reason to buy one. Have you start thinking about this? Which ideas do you have for the interface? Maybe you can contact with kiwijunglist to talk about this and he can help you with the design ;-) I'm thinking on a 3D wall (like in the Youtube app for honeycomb) for movies and series and.... wowwwwww, this can be absolutely amazing!Well, I think that this is enough for now, don't you think so? <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> I hope that you can answer to my first question (the most important for me) and if I thought about more features or comments I will write them here or in google codes page, wherever you want.Many thanks for all and keep up with the good job.Best regards,Aitor PS: Sorry for the length of the post <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
