**************************************** Tested on Nokia N85 using XBMC Dharma beta 2 Should work on: Nokia N78, N79, N81, N82, N85, N86, N95, N96, E51, E55, E71, E72, E75, Samsung GT-I7110 and maybe some others. Better than using the Iphone since you don't have to look at the screen, you can feel the keyboard. Enjoy, Ezzemo Great work - peter296 - 2010-09-29 Great work Ezzemo! I have been waiting for a Symbian app for a very long time. The only problem is that I have en Symbian^1 phone (Nokia 5800) and your program is for 3rd edition. I did try it and it does work - sort of. When I run the script I get the interface up in the corner and it does not react on any touches. However I do get a fourway key and a select button in the bottom and those 5 buttons does work in xbmc. Do you think you could write it work with S^1? I would be happy to be beta tester - Ezzemo - 2010-10-01 peter296 Wrote:Great work Ezzemo! I have been waiting for a Symbian app for a very long time. Peter, you could probably do it yourself since I don't know what the problem is or have a way to test it. Inside the .Rar file there is a .txt file explaining how to modify the code. Take a look at it. It is a simple code, just creates the app and then binds actions to the keyboard. Check the commands that work and the ones that do not work and try to see in the code where the difference is. Also, I tested it on Dharma Beta 2. did you do the same? the fourway key control is binded with numbers and the rest with names. maybe that has something to do with it. To test the commands and see if they work on you XBMC before trying anything else, simply open an internet explorer and paste the command replacing +xbmc+ with you ip:port example: Code: http://192.168.0.101:8080/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=ExecBuiltIn¶meter=XBMC.Action(VolumeUp) Code: http://192.168.0.101:8080/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=sendKey(272) and so on.. Check the txt file for explanations where to get the codes and more. about the screen, you may want to try changing: appuifw.app.screen= to 'normal', 'large' or 'full_max' they might help. Good luck with it and I hope you get it to work. Ezze - nokmond - 2010-10-01 I'm getting a error message on my N95 when I load the app - Check if the follwing components are installed - Python runtime, PIPS library. I installed the 2 sis files so not sure what the problem is? - Ezzemo - 2010-10-01 nokmond Wrote:I'm getting a error message on my N95 when I load the app - The problem is that you need PIPS library. download it from here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IF16BWHY I already had it installed so I didn't notice it was also needed. Tell us if it works. I'll be updating the post later. Ezzemo - nokmond - 2010-10-01 I'll install that and report back. Cheers man. - nokmond - 2010-10-01 It loads now but freezes whrn I choose the wifi network which i want to connect to. I'll have a play around - Ezzemo - 2010-10-01 nokmond Wrote:It loads now but freezes whrn I choose the wifi network which i want to connect to. Try setting your local wifi to default to avoid selecting it everytime. - peter296 - 2010-10-02 Ezzemo Wrote:Peter, you could probably do it yourself since I don't know what the problem is or have a way to test it. Thanks a lot Ezzemo for your input and for attempt to help me get started. I did have a look at it and you are right it does not look too complicated. My problem is that my 5800 is a touchscreen phone and I cannot bind commands to key presses as you do. I guess I need to bind a touch on a screen region to a xbmc command but I do not have any idea of how to do that and your code does not really help me. Do you have any idea where I can find a python S60 5th ed. (S^1) toturial or guide on how to do something like this? - ubuntuf4n - 2010-10-03 Ezzemo Wrote:Try setting your local wifi to default to avoid selecting it everytime. You can only put it to default in S60v3 FP2, but not in FP1 (e.g.n82) or Standard S60v3 (e.g. N95). btw, it also freezes for me (after running). - groggycl - 2010-10-04 I don't know for sure what it was, but I had the same issue (freezes after choosing my wifi network) but I changed my wifi network to default, so it wouldn't ask me where to connect to and I also realized that I entered the wrong ip of my server, it was 192.168.0.100 and I used the default 192.168.1 and just changed the 101 to 100... so I don't know for sure wich of the two "fixes" did the job, but I will try it when I get home and tell you.. sorry for language mistakes, I'm from Chile. - Ezzemo - 2010-10-04 if the app freezes when selecting your wifi connection and can't set it to automatically connect.. then try downloading my first version. XBMCRemotev1.rar Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?dvcvtqdi70x64o5 This v1 uses another method to detect keypress without binding them, and maybe that is the problem when selecting wifi network (keys don't work cause are binded to something else) Note that it has a differente BKG image since buttons are binded differently and the programa uses more resources. Hope it helps.. other than that I have no clue.

Conclusion: Freeze is beacuse wrong server ip address on your XBMCRemotev2.py file, and not because you are given the option to wich network connect. :O EDIT: FYI, I used it on my nokia n96, and work like a charm. - drzoo2 - 2010-10-16 Currently testing on an E71 North American version. So far so good. Very slick. No lag. Thanks! I will report back If I run into anything. z - Ezzemo - 2010-10-18 Glad to see it's working and more people can use it.
