Hey everyone,
I've been using XBMC for more a couple of years now and I've made an XBMC remote application for my Major Project for my degree.
It's a novel approach that uses Rhodes (http://www.rhomobile.com/products/rhodes/) to create the application natively on either iOS, Android, etc.
My application is written in Ruby, HTML and JS. But has some cool features such as:
- Can put movies into a watch later list
- Can scan movie barcodes and either finds it added in the database or adds it to a buy later list
It uses the JSON RPC API to communicate with the XBMC server.
Since I've finished my dissertation I've opened up the source code. It can be found here: https://github.com/richrace/RemoteApp.
If anyone wants to add to it or fix anything you're more than welcome to.
Here are some videos of the application running:

Cheers!
