Remote works but shows socket error
#1
So I've got a good one for ya, I keep getting the standard socket error "make sure webserver is enabled and xbmc is running" after recently switching from xbmcbuntu to a windows installation (also making the move to eden).

I can get into the remote section of the app, and then use it to navigate xbmc, however it keeps giving the socket timeout every few moments. I can't figure this out at all.

Anyone have any ideas?

Need to see your debug log (wiki) showing these sockets errors. Upload the contents of the log to www.pastebin.com or www.xbmclogs.com and post the URL link for the uploaded log here with your reply. And be sure you enable debug logging first: System/Settings > System > Debugging > Enable debug logging.

If you are on Eden and have lot's of show you need to increase your timeouts in the remote settings.
