It is really LAN remote. You do not necessarily need wifi but it is a catchy name. If you install the plugin you can then control MP from another computer with the demo client or Ampdriod(Android Device) or CoachPotato(iOS Device).

What I want is to remote control my HTPC from my Android phone.
If I install wifiremote as plugin to MP and Ampdriod on my phone. It is what it takes to or do I need more?

That's enough. Ampdroid is more than just a remote though. You can browse and select content to be played on the HTPC or streamed to the phone. You can find more info in the ampdroid forum.

Is there a dummies guide to this??

Can you provide a bit more details. Maybe I can help. The .8 versions uses GMA, wifiremote and tv4home.

That version is in the android marketplace and loc did this video.

The version 1.0 is beta, not in the marketplace and uses MPExtended (replaces GMA and TV4Home) as backend.
