XBMC Remote - w/ lock screen widgets
#1
I've been using XBMC since the original Xbox days and have built several htpc with it in my apartment. There is many awesome features that I can go on about for days but one of the greatest things is the app for a remote controller to control the media center.

That app is great, no need for an IR receiver with remote when you can just use your phone. But there was one thing that bothered me about the app. It lacked the ability to have the widget on the lock screen that was added in Android 4.2.2. So I took the task on myself to add them. And it helps that XBMC Remote is open source I took the source from, https://github.com/freezy/android-xbmcremote

What I have done is broke up the original widget into 2 separate widgets.

The original widget is still there and intact whole just only available for the home screens. I also changed the awful Gingerbread green color on button presses to the ICS/Jelly Bean blue.

I will upload my sources in the next few days. I still don't think I'm fully finished with this yet. Feel free and post any comments/suggestions.

Thanks! I didn't do much really, all the code was there just updated to the new 4.2.2 api's so we can have lock screen widgets.
