Hi all,

Is it possible to control MP via a PPC and WiFi ?
More or less like Xlobby works ?

(didn't like Xlobby that much though)

    I found a thread on xlobby.com which shows screenshots that look very much like MP! But the thread is describing XLobbyMC (running Xlobby on PPC?) the person (Naylia - from Boston) who worked on the screens has listed under a todo section in his profile "Add XRemote to XLobbyMC"

    It sure would be nice to see a the ability to remote of MP from a Windows Mobile pocketPC handheld wifi computer!

    To clarify. The screens are from xlobby not MP, its "just" the images that look like MP. And from what I know u cant control MP from a PPC.

    The images are from Samsonite. The XLobbyMC skin came about when I started using SageTV with mlbdude's SageMC skin. I contacted him about about creating a matching skin and he pointed me towards Samsonite who was quite generous in allowing us both to use his fine artwork.

    So, you're power cycling the TV, but not putting the PC to sleep ? In General => Startup/Resume settings, try checking "Ignore Windows resolution/size changes" In Codecs and Render, try selecting the specific audio device rather than "Default DirectSound device" Just ideas, no guarantee this will do anything. If this doesn't work, I...

    Interesting. :coffee: I always have DVB subtitles enabled in "MP Config", but I actually switch on subtitles only for those films that have deafening sound effects and music, combined with inaudible dialogue. I have never noticed the problem that you have described, but I also use the EVR renderer, and not the Madvr renderer. So...

    I don't have any other ideas as to the cause of the problem. Perhaps @ajs can help? -- from CyberSimian in the UK
