[QUOTE="splatterpop, post: 259326, member: 62445"] My feeling is there are two major approaches to remote controlling: 1. emulate keystrokes + like classical IR remotes + one-way, no feedback, you need the main screen to see what you are doing 2. replicate the desktop + user feedback through screen replication + bandwidth, DirectX, resolution issues What I have in mind is something in between the two. + replicate the controls *needed* to the remote screen, maybe you would not want to use the fullscreen video on a remote + interact with the buttons / skin / whatever user interface there is on the application side So maybe this could be some MP plugin in combination with a client application on the remote?
