[QUOTE="bodiroga, post: 651228, member: 63563"] Hi guys! Some weeks ago kirky posted a link to the new Android official remote for XBMC in the iPiMP subforum and since then I have been thinking in opening this thread. Here you have a link to the kirky's post and to the official announcement in XBMC web page: [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/ipimp-518/android-what-your-experience-81883/index4.html"]Kirky's post[/URL] Number 33 [URL="http://xbmc.org/freezy3k/2010/07/13/official-xbmc-remote-for-android/"]Official announcement[/URL] The only thing I just want to ask is if anybody here is interested on such a type of plugin or if I am alone here. What do you think? I'm not a programmer, so I can't help coding the plugin, but I can give ideas, spanish translation, testing... In my opinion, first we should start doing a light version of the XBMC app with just the music section of it. Am I the only one who would love to play music in their HTPC without having to turn on TV? Yes, I now that iPiMP is able do it (many thanks to Martin for his plugin, it's wonderful), but it's not as fast as a native app and the configuration (apache server...) is thorny. How difficult would be to port the XBMC app considering that the interface could be very similar (asking for permission first to XBMC developers) and that Mediaportal is based on XBMC? Here you have the link to the Android remote google code page (the app is opensource, of course): [URL="http://code.google.com/p/android-xbmcremote/"]Google code page[/URL] [URL="http://code.google.com/p/android-xbmcremote/source/browse/#svn/trunk"]Trunk[/URL] What type of plugin does this app require? The Android part and a process plugin to communicate with Mediaportal? Any coder with same Android experience (based on Linux and Java) can tell us/me something? Is that little port from XBMC app feasible? Too much work? Many thanks to all for reading my post and if anybody else is interested in the app please post it (that way we can "easily" attract the attention of a developer). Best regards, Aitor PD: Sorry for my English. EDIT: Reading the google code page I found that the wiki section is really interesting, although I don't understand it well: [URL="http://code.google.com/p/android-xbmcremote/source/browse/#svn/wiki"]Link[/URL] [/QUOTE]
