I'm just wondering if there is a way to have SPMC auto launch when I start the Shield up so I can control with the iPad rather than having to get the joypad to initially get onto SPMC?

I saw this but not sure how you would do this on the Shield:

Install X-Plore file manager - https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...lore&hl=en
Use it navigate to where you have stored the "xbmc_env.properties" file, and copy it to the root location on the Shield, this will show as "Internal Storoge" and below that "/sdcard".
If you're unsure of the file, you can download the one I created from here - https://mega.nz/#!UZpT1BBK!dTMtOAUGWNgcN...v0G2oX_QeQ
Save it to a USB drive, Micro SD card, Google Drive, Dropbox etc.. these can all be accessed by X-Plore to copy to the root directory.
