I have XBMC working on my ATV2. My roomie remote recognises XBMC on my wired network, when I add it as a device it asks for a username and password, I'm not sure what to enter here.

There is a function to test remote before entering the username and password but the remote doesn't do anything.

Two questions:
1. What username and password should I use?
2. Are there any setting within XBMC I need to change to get it to recognise the roomie commands which are wireless from my iPhone to iTach then wired to router and then to ATV2

Thanks

Navigate to System –> Network –> Services -> Webserver and then check “Allow control of XBMC via HTTP” and in Remote Control “Allow programs on other systems to control XBMC”.

Thanks very much, I'll try it tonight. Any thoughts on the username/password. I've heard it should be xmbc and xmbc or xmbc and blank

Use the username / password as specified in System –> Network –> Services -> Webserver

Tried changing settings and username and password as suggested. XBMC is still not responding to roomie remote commands. Is there anything else I can try/check

Port # is 8080

Thanks

is roomie remote even compatible with frodo?

According to their site it should be
http://www.roomieremote.com/ip-compatibility/

Try testing out the settings from a web broser http://<ip-address/hostname>:8080

Tried http://192.168.0.5:8080 where my Apple TV is, it brings up the interface with the remote. Pressing buttons on remote works about 1 time in 100 (not an exaggeration) through roomie it never worked once. Does this help with the diagnosis?

Thanks

UPDATE
I was accessing 192.168.0.5:8080 from my iPhone before. Just tried to access from my home PC and it appears to work.
