Hi all, thanks for appreciation... Nod

Here a new version:
http://www.orciatico.it/xbrunzmc/xbrunzmc2.1qvga-0.8.rar QVGA Version
http://www.orciatico.it/xbrunzmc/xbrunzmc2.1VGA-0.8.rar VGA Version

Disable OSD in Movie section (it cause a crash of the webserver of XBMC, I shall highlight this xbmc bug).
Correct some timeout bug.
add button key in Pictures section for move image in zoom mode.
add Wakeup event, for check network connection, (I can't try this on qvga version, because my qvga pda haven't wifi )
fix other little problems..

I do not think I will succeed to make other update in the coming month, but you write here if you found other bug...

bye
Brunz

many thanks for this cool piece of software!

works fine on hp hx4700 (wm6, vga) and htc trinity (wm5, qvga, it´s a vodafone vpa compact gps actually).
the osd button does not work in the music section. what´s the function of the button?
and it would be nice to rename the "play now" button to something like "now playing".
and i really liked the time counter for mp3s in the early version, but maybe that´s just me Wink

thanks again!

I recently treated myself to an HTC Touch HD which has a WVGA screen.... do you thing you will be adding this to the line up at any point? Smile


- vwolsink - 2009-01-20

Very cool application! Most of the functions work like a charm Big Grin

But, is it correct there isn't a way to see what is currently playing and/or show playlist position etc?
Maybe that functionality is behind the 'Play Now' button? But when I tap that button my PDA (HTC P3600) locks up, keeps displaying the 'loading' message, or just nothing happens. Sad


- Brunz - 2009-01-21

Hi vwolsink,
could you try if "play now" works with this version http://www.orciatico.it/xbrunzmc/xbr...qvga - 0.6.rar
thanks

Hi Geeba,
sorry but I'm not a PDA with WVGA screen, and the emulator isn't accurate.

Hi Brunz,

I tried the button in the 0.6 version from http://www.orciatico.it/xbrunzmc/xbrunzmc2.1qvga%20-%200.6.rar (the link in your post was broken but I got it somewhere from page 5)

In this version it also doesn't work. When I tap the button it is lit for a few secs and nothing else happends. There also isnt a message, but I read that messages weren't working yet in version 0.6 Laugh

I could try making a tunnel to the xbox through my laptop and check out what is communicated between the xbox and my PDA. If it is necessary I could also debug the source with visual studio and my PDA.

Let me know if you need help. I think XBrunzMC is a great program, but it would be awsome if the 'play now' button worked Laugh

EDIT:
Ok, just tried to intercept the communication, because I was just interested, and for the communication part everything seems to work ok.

Hi Brunz

Not to discount what the other user is saying about the 'Play Now' button but it's functioning okay for me. I suggested though renaming it to 'Now Playing'.

On my XBMC I have a couple of sources named 'Our Movies' and 'TV Shows'. When I first click the Movie button I'm presented with the file view. If I then click my movie directory I'm taken back to the main screen. However, if I switch to library view I'm then able to access my movie titles. However, that's the only option. I don't see a choice for TV Shows. The Movie button should be renamed to Videos I think...

- Brunz - 2009-01-22

ok vwolsink, I think that I understand the problems... filename and title, are very strange Wink , so I think that there is an error to parse the string.
Actually, I can't modify the source, I'm not to home, but I fix it in next release.

Thanks Iris,
there are some error, i know, but now I can't work on it, I have a lot of work, now I'm not to home and soon my wife give birth Laugh.
I think that release the source code shortly, so someone will refine xbrunzmc before of me Smile.

Nice work... 320x320 help needed.. - bosboefje - 2009-01-23

Hi Brunz!

Thank for the great app. in my opionion it's the best XBMC remote for smartphones yet. I tried the three well known ones.

XBMC HTTP-R (some work to install)
XBMCiphone (works but isn't as stable as your app but does work on winmobile)
Old java based remote for j-remote? (not pretty)
and the default webinterface of course :-)

I have one problem. the 320x320 screen I have on my samsung i780
It won't view properly with the QVGA version (although workable but ugly due to outlining)

How can I create or help you create a 320x320 version.... :-)
Please help me out...

Greetings..

Hi Brunz,

installed vga 0.8 on a Loox N560. Works fine, in fact better than anything else I have tested. Will keep you informed about bugs I find. Cool piece of software, thanks.


- iHawk - 2009-01-24

I have to correct myself... version 0.8 runs perfectly on WM 2003 SE now Smile For the lazy I have created CABs of both versions. Best to be used with CabViaActiveSync:

xbrunzmc_0.8_QVGA.cab

xbrunzmc_0.8_VGA.cab

Now, it would be cool if you could give the exe an icon, like this one maybe:

iHawk


- Brunz - 2009-01-24

Great iHawk, I like the icon Smile and thanks for cab files.
I think that the 0.8 version works on WM 2003 SE, because I removed alphablend, too slow for pda with VGA resolution.

I hope I can continue my work soon, so I can add icon, add playlist manager and add lastfm compatibility.

bye
Brunz

Hi Bosboefje, could you send a screenshot, so I try to resolve. I can't try xbrunzmc to 320x320.

Hi

first of all it seems a nice application thanks Brunz

I am trying xbrunzmc application, but I am not able to connect on Xbmc. I am using IP over bluetooth. From my PDA (WM 2003 SE) I could browse Xbmc web server on the port 8080. I have set the IP address in xbrunmc. Do I have to configure something in Xbmc

Thanks
