So, yeah - it turns out I'm an idiot, and didn't have the web server turned on.
I love the looks of this, and think it's a good use of the limited space available on a qvga screen!
Some odd things did happen, though:
1. While browsing movies (which are stored remotely on the network), the controller would frequently boot me out of the list and back to the first screen. I got the INFO button to work a few times, and it did not disappoint, although cast information would be nice.
2. In the list view, the REMOTE button didn't seem to do anything, even while playing a file, but I suspect it just hasn't been implemented yet.
Everything else looks great! I can't wait to be able to control everything from my phone!
One last thing - is the application speed because my media is remote, or will it always take a while to get information and execute commands because of the machine I'm using?
