either get a remote app for iphone/android/wp7(?) or you need an infrared remote/sensor. Or you get the remote from pulse eight. If you have the budget for it, that's what I'd recommend.

Problem is, when it scrapes, it stops at 300 movies. I have tried rebooting, manually telling it to update, but it doesn't want to list anything over the 300 movies, including my television programs. Any idea what is causing this? I can't find anything on the topic... Thanks in advanceAre you out of space? 4GB isn't very big and once the library scrapes all the images and caches them I wouldn't doubt your encroaching on space issues possibly?

About the HD playback, I have the revision B model with 256MB RAM and the latest Raspbmc build installed - and whilst 1080p mkv playback works flawlessly, when I try to pull up the xmbc controls over the movie (overlay transparency effects) the movie playing in the background stutters. If I switch to SD media, no stuttering whilst playing with the options in the foreground. Also, the playback is running over SMB from a Network Share, on a Gigabit LAN.
Can anyone else confirm this issue? Is this a performance limitation on Pi (hardware) or is there still room for Raspmbc development/fine tuning?
Thanks and great work so far!
