I have no covers on No Playing, either.
Would a log help here?

Well the app looks like a good one.
Unfortunatelly it doesn´t work on my system.
I have CM7.1 running, without any permission restrictions.
When I want to connect to host it always says: "I/O Exception (java.net.SocketException) - Permission denied".
So I cant connect.
Well but another app XBMC Remote form the market works fine.
Just give IP adress, user password and port.. finish.
Does someone has the same problem or a solution?

Wow! I just came onto the forums to offer a bounty to the first person to fix this app haha (I finally had it with all the crashes) and I see this!
Please put up a donate link or something, and I'll throw a few bucks your way! (After the JSON API is implemented though)
Also, I have a Galaxy Nexus LTE running all different ROM's that I can test for you. You can reach me at any of the communication mediums I have listed in my sig or profile and I can help/check anything you need!
Server - Debain Squeeze Server + 6TB RAID5 + Sabnzbd + CP & SB
HTPC - Zotac MAG + 60GB Vertex 2 SSD + OpenELEC Frodo 12.1 + Aeon Nox
HTPC 2 - AppleTV 2

No covers during "now playing" here either.
Thumbnails for browsing libraries work fine though. The "medium" directory appears to have larger versions of all the thumbs; however, they are not displayed.
Win 7 x64 Dharma
Blackberry Playbook
I have also tried it with Eden, same problem. I have also cleared cache and rebuilt library. A friend has the same playbook build and has cover art during the "now playing" screen;however, he uses Eden on Ubuntu - so maybe this issue is Windows related.

Earlier problems with Samsung galaxy s 2 now gone with beta 3.
Still missing covers in now playing.
Everything else works for me.
Thanks to the developers, it's a great app.

Am new to this forum, but couldn't find an answer by searching...
Would it be possible to play trailers locally rather than on the xbmc machine? Makes much more sense to me if you are using the device to browse and preview before playing it.

v0.8.8-beta1 Revision 808
Hi there!
Great work so far. Tested with ginger bread 2.3.1 on odys cosmo and on ICS.
Three issues are there. Tilt Sensor support in files does not work. When turning the device the list gets empty (no data) and one need to go back one step end rescan the items.
Second in now playing there is just a empty cd case instead of the poster.
and finally, if you have more than one xbmc running and shut down the current ( power off ) you get socket error - cannot connect.
Switching to the other instance does not work , because the device tries to reconnect to the current xbmc instance and repeats the error message. after a while and several retries (going back etc.) it can connect to the desired instance.
One wish: in the status bar whereyou can click to switch instances - please show the host name instead of the running xbmc version string. If you have multiple xbmc running with the same version you cannot guess what the active instance is...
