Now that a new version has been submitted to Apple, and until it's on the App Store, I am taking some time to experiment with ideas.
The next thing was actually an idea of Goliath2000
He came up with the following idea (if I am right):
When you are browsing through your library and you select a movie, the details of that movie are only being displayed on your iPad. It would also be handy to display the movie info on the big screen. So actually selecting the same movie in Kodi.
I was experimenting earlier with getting info displayed in Kodi. It can be done, but I foresee some difficulties in certain scenarios.
That's why I have decided to do it the other way around. I am not trying to select the same movie in Kodi, I will create the info myself and display that in Kodi.
The following screen shots are just taken from a proof of concept.
When selecting the extended info of a movie I will take a snapshot of the screen and display it in Kodi, like this:
Would this be a useful feature?
