My idea is to develop an add-on to control home automation, and handle addons, have it all on the same interface.The addon support that Team XBMC is putting into the Frodo JSON (Post-Eden Nightlies) is being watched so that better integration/control can possibly be done in the future, but it's currently in a state that doesn't allow for much different that what is already provided. As far as the home automation, that's probably best suited as being a 'normal' XBMC addon, which at this time would handle the same way as others. XBMC Constellation is and always will be at it's core a "Remote Control for XBMC" and although some potential new features could be coming to 'enhance' that, it doesn't seem to fit adding home automation controls directly into the app itself since both iOS and Android have dedicated apps for that purpose. (Again, if someone created an addon for XBMC it could be used similar to other addons)
Quote:Regarding the port of android, I know they are in it but had asked to know more or less the lead conversion process. I have an ipad, but for all members of my household can handle various home automation equipment and XBMC, I can not afford to buy several ipads, but for the same price of 1 ipad i can buy 2 android tablets.I fully understand the financial issues with multiple devices (I've been out of work and on disability for just over 5 years now), but sadly my knowledge of the Android status is limited to "they are still 'working' on it as far as I know". Thruthfully, I don't own any Android devices so I haven't bothered to ask any details on the progress for it.
Quote:With regard to streaming, is a very interesting function that I see(GSOC proposal for 2012 ), just like you can control multiple XBMC host (Here is the proposal from other user)The streaming part has to wait until new(er) features are added on XBMC's end of things before they can be used by anybody. The multi-system control is interesting. No idea if this idea has caught the developers eyes yet or how high on the priority list it would be since they already have the ability to use multiple systems (one at a time) so they'd probably want to iron out bugs or have other things to add/remove before they started working on that (that's only my guess/opinion).
Quote:Another idea I have is that it could activate an edit mode in options (like xbmc) to edit and remove movies. The appearance could be compared to the native iPad, that hold a file,the interface moves and you can select which files to delete. The idea is that the tablet Can perform most tasks and does not require any maintenance,it is so easy to use that even my grandfather can handle.There's a lot of back-end work to this idea. First off, all of this would have to be supported by JSON... I know the Web-Interface Addon "XWMM" allows you to modify meta data (for audio and video) so at least some of the ability is already there. If I remember correct XWMM doesn't allow you to outright delete something from XBMC database (not sure if it's a limitation or a development choice).

I know Spanish and understand English well, so we would be happy to help with translation. You know that older people do not get along with languages and I want anyone to use.I responded briefly to your PM in regards to the translations... Anyone that can help with something other than English, Spanish, Polish... PM me if you're interested in helping.
