When touching "MOVIES" on the XBMC Remote, "No items found" is returned.
Gotham 13.1 on Windows 7
XBMC Remote Version 1.5.1 on iPad 1
I can touch the "Added Movies" icon just below the movie list and the list of movies is returned. The icons: "Movies (0)" returns nothing, "Movie Genres (0)" returns nothing, "Movie Sets (0)" returns nothing.
The ellipses icon: "..." acts normally.
The Video playlist area in the lower left shows the Movies in XBMC.
The "MUSIC", "PICTURES", and "REMOTE CONTROL" selections work normally. I have no TV SHOWS nor LIVE TV in XBMC.
I have run out of ideas to try to fix it. In Windows 7: XMBC, the MOVIES selector on the Home Screen and all else works normally. Confluence skin.
Any help?
Thank you.

Just tried XBMC Remote on a newer iPad running iOS 7.1 and the remote works properly.
My iPad, version 1, runs iOS 5.1.1 and I assume that is why mine doesn't work properly.
I suppose there is no way around that.... Maybe use an older version of the remote?
The requirements for the app state that iOS version 5.1.1 will work. Hoping the issue can be rectified.

Thank you for the help. XBMC Remote is great. I appreciate your time and expertise.
I uploaded logs as frankpc along with my email address.
First log is from iPad iOS 5.1.1 #241955
Second log is from iPad iOS 7.1.2 #241957
I'll be interested to follow along with what you find.
Thanks

ah!! sorry but with XBMC Gotham we need to enable the option Settings > System > Debugging > Enable Component specific logging > Verbose logging for JSON-RPC requests, otherwise the json rpc request aren't logged anymore. After enabling that option, please register another debug log, thank you.
In the meantime I've tried an ipad 1 with iOS 5.1.1 and everything seems to work properly here, something is happening with your environment that I can't see...

meh! seems that in the debug log that you have provided in the truth there isn't an json-rpc request from the remote app, instead seems that when you are accessing to the movies library with the app, the app is loading the cached info without request anything to XBMC (the VideoLibrary.GetMovies calls into your debug log doesn't come from the remote app). Please, provide a new debug log but this time pull down the list to sync the remote app with XBMC.

Great news!! I did the "list down to sync" feature on both iPads, and both iPads now show the list of Movies. I need to mess with it some more, but I think it is working perfectly.
In the setup for XBMC, I turned on, "Clear cache on next start". I also turned on Enable contents cache, Menu reveal Toobar, and override lockscreen.
Thank you so much for the time you have spent helping me with this.
