First off I wanted to say that I've been using the app for around a year now and I must say that this is a must-have for a HTPC-IPad combo. So thanks Burbulence, the app is pretty cheap for the exellent amount of features it provides.
I have a couple of questions:
1. From time to time when i have the app loaded on my IPad and i restart the the XBMC server (running on a clean Win7 Ultimate), or the server is idle for some time - the app on the IPad stops showing the "now playing" feature as if it loses the connection to xbmc. When i reload the app it connects normally and everything works. It's just a bit annoying that after i work for a couple of hours i come to the living room to watch a movie and the first thing i do is restart the IPad app.
2. I'm currently considering swapping my IPad for a Surface RT, is the W8 RT Constellation app in the pipline at any point?
Dont thank me for the app, i have nothing to do with it! All i do here is assist with support when and where i can... but thanks anyway!
as for your points:
1. this may be more to do with the network connection on your iPad going to sleep, you can set constellation to override the iPad doing this, but it zaps the battery pretty quick, unfortunately not a lot can be done here i think. the other way to reconnect is to touch the wifi symbol at the top left and hit the arrow next to the current host, then touch the current host, this should reconnect constellation.
2. Not heard anything yet for an RT app, maybe after the team at FSS release an andriod app they will move on to one!

Can anyone confirm:
Using latest Frodo nightly, if a tv show season does NOT have local poster (possibly if seasons prior do?) then in Constellation an incorrect (seaming lay random show's) poster is shown for it!
Weird....
Ive noticed a few things weird about how constellation deals with thumbs from Frodo, and it is because of the changes made to the way XBMC handles images since EDEN, best guess is this will be sorted in the next Constellation release... no eta though,
