Hi Everybody,
Have been using WMC with XBMC for close to a year now and I have to say that this addon has delivered the most significant single improvement to my home HTPC distributed setup since I started all this about 10 years ago. Amazing work from all of you guys!
Although I don't mind scheduling recordings and using the EPG on XBMC, I think it would be better to be able to use my large screen 'phablet' or perhaps even purchase a tablet so I can look through the WMC EPG that way. The idea of using my fingers to navigate the EPG and using touchscreen to schedule recordings appeals to me.
So my question is, what do you all think is the best WMC android app for achieving this? I have looked at the Ceton 'My Media Center' and the 'Remote Media Center HD' and I also see a few others on the google play store. I see that Remote Media Center HD uses remote potato as the backend, but I have read other threads where people have problems with WMC working with both potato and XBMC. I have also seen Yatse but that doesn't seem very clear on how well it supports PVR.
Basically just looking to see what others are using and what provides the most reliable and best interface experience. I understand this is not related to XBMC or ServerWMC directly but thought a few people might have already have tackled this.
Thanks in advance!
