Are you having an issue adding a button to a specific key, is it doing a different command than you expect or something else? One thing to keep in mind, when you create custom buttons, there's an On/Off toggle in the upper right corner that some people thing means to activate the button or not, however if you read directly above it, it says "Safe button". If you have Safe Button turned on, by default you have to HOLD the button you want until it fills up with color before it activates, which is the desired result and helps you from accidentally hitting buttons you don't mean. So the first thing you want to try is to hold down the button and see if it starts filling with color, if it activates after about a second you know the button is working. If you want to remove the safety feature to buttons you've already created, open the dialog box where you create them and you'll see a list, touch the one you don't want the safety on and you can change the toggle back to off. If I'm way off on the issue you're having, you'll have to repost with more details so I have a better idea what you're talking about.

Its working well except fast forward/rewing button, im not sure what its doing its like it fastforwards/rewinds once quickly then stops?

Also volume when i try to adjust it bitstreaming during a movie, a popup appears typically when using xbmc official app, or an mce remote, or keyboard that passthrough mode is activated, so you cant adjust volume. Constellation is not displaying this message, so other users in my house are asking why you cant control volume. Would be nice if constellation volume worked the same way so the notice pops up like every other controller device. Its almost like constellation is using different commands regarding volume and fast forward and rewind then the official app.


And hope you get better and get enough donations, love this app! Hope to see it continue to improve.

Are you by chance on a jailbroken device? Your device going into Safe Mode suggests something wrong in the Mobile Substrate which Constellation does NOT affect in any way. What I'd suggest (jailbroken or not) is open the app, give it time to complete it's full sync, do NOT start a movie yet, scroll down to "Settings" and then do "Remove database", confirm that... give it a minute and then do "Resync local data"... again, give it enough time to do a full sync. Force Quit the app, and relaunch... hopefully you'll be fine at that point. They may be something corrupt in your current database causing the app to crash... not sure why it's forcing Safe Mode though... (if you are Jailbroken, they may be a tweak causing the Mobile Substrate crash).

Thanks for the well wishes... Thankfully my health has been pretty stable for awhile now, it's just the pain and physically exhausting most of the time... plus disability doesn't pay for crap.

Just a reminder for those that don't know, too lazy to read the blog post, or just forgot... Although I provide a high percent of the tech support for Constellation (among other things) I have never officially worked for FSS (the team behind Constellation) and everything I have done has been 'pro bono' because I like their apps so much. I'm just pointing this out again because of the rude PM I got telling me "You should just take some of the profits you get from Apple selling your app and quit trying to sucker other users into paying for your misfortune" (paraphrased cause I can't stand to copy/paste that many typos ) and wanted to let people know I have NEVER gotten any money from the sale of Constellation or for the support I provide.

For people still interested in reading the blog or donating, the actual post is located here or if you just want to know a little more about me, you can check my About Me page. (I should probably get around to updating that sometime.)

I guess you could call it a bug, but not a Constellation Bug... the problem here is the new way Frodo handles movie sets (when using TheMovieDB scraper). If I remember right, remove the movies (Cube and the other one) from XBMC, dig around in the settings and turn off the option for automatically creating movie sets, re-scan the two movies... Now, if that doesn't fix it in Constellation right away, you may have to remove the local database in Constellation and resync.

Exported the database and found this so obviously XBMC is saying its a collection even though the tickbox is set to off. Removed this line and imported the database back in and all is well, its ok to do this wit 5 moies but I have nearly 800 on my HTPC hard drives
