[QUOTE="robbo100, post: 768071, member: 91446"] [b]Re: CouchPotato - an iPhone remote app for MediaPortal | Version 1.1 (2011-07-19)[/b] Hi Shukuyen I thought I would post some feedback on the new version which I have had a quick play with: 1) I love the gestures!!!! It works really well (mostly) and is intuitive. However, I find the two finger menu hide option very difficult to operate and they Couch Potato seems to easily confuse it with the volume change function, or a single finger swipe (I can hardly ever get it to work). 2) The media progress bar is also really nice. It would be great if this progress bar continues to display when viewing the media information page. 3) It would also be great if the gestures continued to work whilst showing the media information page (or in the top section at least where touching the screen has no function). 4) For some reason, the "home" button has stopped working and seems to trigger the "back" command instead (note: I think this is a problem with Wifiremote not Couch Potato since the problem was evident before I updated my iPhone but after I updated Wifiremote). 5) When watching live TV, the gesture "back/stop" command does not seem to work. If you double tap then MP brings up the "do you really want to stop live TV?" message. You can then swipe left or right to select yes or no, but if you then do a single tap to select your option you then send a "pause" command. Therefore it seems impossible to stop live TV using gestures. 6) The same problem as discussed in item 5 is also a problem with menus. If you do a long tap gesture, the menu item is shown. Again, you can navigate using up and down swipes, but you can not select an option using a single tap (as it sends the "pause command". This is the case for menus for videos and live TV. 7) Changing the media playback position using the media progress bar is an excellent feature, but picking up the moving slider can be a little tricky owing to the slider being quite small. Could it be coded that tapping and holding anywhere on the slider picks up the moving slider rather than having to tap at the precise position of the current play progress point (does that make sense)? 8) Media information does not seem to work with live TV.

Keep up the brilliant work - I love this app. I hope the above comments help to continue development of a fantastic plugin. Robbo100 [/QUOTE]
