    Re: WifiRemote - a tcp remote control server 0.4.1 [2011-08-19]

    Hi Shukuyen,

    I'm trying to get WiFiRemote working. I'm using MP 1.2.0 Final (upgraded from 1.2.0 beta).
    I have dowloaded this installer: http://wifiremote.googlecode.com/files/WifiRemote.0.4.1_rc1.mpe1

    It installs fine, but WifFiRemote does not show up in the process plugins list, so I am unable to configure it.
    Is this a known issue? Are there any logs I can upload?

    Can you please set MediaPortal to debug logging, start it and post your MediaPortal.log file?

    Open the MediaPortal.xml file with the Editor and delete the whole wifiremote section.

    I don't know why that helped (your first config section looks perfectly fine) but I am glad that it did help. Can anybody confirm this works for you, too?

    After studying the Sourcecode i found a solution for the JIT-Error.

    Got to your Mediaportal "User Files" Folder.

    Open the MediaPortal.xml file with the Editor and delete the whole wifiremote section.

    In my case the section looked as shown here:
    Code:
    <section name="WifiRemote">
        <entry name="port">8017</entry>
        <entry name="disableBonjour">no</entry>
        <entry name="serviceName">WOHNZIMMER-PC</entry>
        <entry name="username">yUQBuXZA91s=</entry>
        <entry name="password">yUQBuXZA91s=</entry>
        <entry name="passcode">yUQBuXZA91s=</entry>
        <entry name="auth">0</entry>
        <entry name="autologinTimeout">0</entry>
        <entry name="savedPlugins">88884|Extra Menu|16002|GeckoBrowser|7972|HTPC Info|16000|InfoService|96742|Moving Pictures|9811|MP-TV Series|5900|My Trailers|88889|Skin Info|196200|StreamedMP Configuration|87258|Trakt|1|TV|88883|Watch Menu|16002|WebBrowser|0|Home|501|Music|2|Pictures|7890|Last.fm Radio|4|Settings|2600|Weather</entry>
        <entry name="ignoredPlugins">-1|0|3005|730716</entry>
      </section>


    After saving the xml File the configuration should work again.


    Thanks John! This works perfect!:D

    This is my first attempt using Wifiremote but have a problem!
    I am currently running 1.2.0 beta (SVN Version 1.1.7.27839) which won't allow me to install 0.4.1 and although 0.4.0 installs it says its an incompatible plugin.
    Should this version work?

    This version should work:
    http://wifiremote.googlecode.com/files/WifiRemote.0.4.1_rc1.mpe1
    Why don't you upgrade to 1.2.1? Should work almost automatically and well ... it's final :D

    This must be a similar version that I have already tried since I get the same message " requires Mediaportal version 1.1.6.27644 to 1.1.6.27644" and then " Installation aborted some of the dependancy not found!"

    btw I am waiting for a stable version of the sky epg grabber to be released before I install 1.2.1.

    Any other ideas?

    I will send you a download link to the required files for 1.2 beta via PM tonight so you can "install" it manually (you just have to copy 2 files).

    WifiRemote 0.4.2 is out now.

    • Fixed keymap (home button not working and more)
    • Added addresses field to qr code
    • Fixed autoconnect issue

    Download on Google Code, MediaPortal Extensions repository and in the Extension Installer (once it is approved).

    I am new to that Wifiremote ... I installed, it works perfect with the democlient.

    My Question:
    is it possible to remote control from a php script? How do I need to do that ? I have no idea how to pass JSON over a socket ...(example would be great) :D

    EDIT
    Wow, is that easy. I just passes the JSON as strings over my socket, works perfect !!

    Nice, then I don't even have to look for an example anymore :D
    There were already some attempts by different people to make a web interface, but I haven't heard back from them. Maybe you can post a link if you come up with something :)

    that are my first steps, and I am trying to connect MP with home automation IP-Symcon.

    I can now pass all MP commands and even open MP-TVSeries with "Window" - but how can I choose a series with specified title or seriesID ?

    are there anywhere listed commands for MP-TVSeries?
