1) Enable/Disable main menu items is in the TODO list
2) Hum.. I don't know if this could be a good idea
3) I will look a way to enlarge those buttons
Hi thanks for taking the time to consider my suggestions. Let me try and make the case for #2:
"2. Also would like to be able to "hide" the XBMC Remote from left column, and only have it accessible under the power button menu- For my use case, this remote is used by the family only for music playback, with the ipad being the only library interface, and I don't want them poking around on the Remote because there is no reason to do so."
If you are running XBMC "headless" (e.g. only accessing it via ipad remote for music playback), for a whole-home audio scenario, you don't want the kids and wife selecting "remote" and making blind changes to the running XBMC box. Make sense? I mean, if it's only an advanced setting option to hide the 'Remote' menu from the left column, that would be cool, most folks will leave it on but for cases such as mine, would be perfect. Essentially XBMC in this case is being used like a $2k Bryston BDP-1 with MPAD ios remote, but at a much more reasonable price point. I understand that many use XBMC with a display, play back movies etc on the main monitor, but for dedicated music library use only and no display used, there's no need to have the remote menu readily accessible, especially with 3 or 4 ipad mini's set up this way around the house. By doing this you're kind of giving your remote, and XBMC, a whole new dedicated purpose as a central music library system. JMHO ..
