Answer is still the same:
If at some point server side transcoding and streaming is added to XBMC, i'll add this to the app. Until the it's not possible.
Quote:My first post in this thread. I'll admit that I tried out XBMC Commander for free for a while, but today I actually bought it as I think it's a brilliant app and deserves support. The other reason I bought it is so I can ask for another feature without feeling like a cheapskateWelcome to the not-so-dark-side
Next to selecting my movies with my friends, I also use XBMC Commander to listen to music without needing to switch on the TV (my media center is connected to my amp). When finished I'd like to switch my media center off which for me always means putting it in suspend mode. XBMC Commander has a shutdown command, but it brings up the shutdown menu. to select Suspend from there I have to switch on the TV. My normal remote (which I now hardly use anymore) has the "red button" programmed to take the shutdown action from the XBMC settings (System Settings-Power Savings-Shutdown function setting). Is it possible to put a button like that in XBMC Commander?
Edit:
I searched this thread a bit (probably should have done that before posting my question, but anyways) and found that AgeOfPanic apparently had the same wish and found a way to change the default shutdown behavior to this option. Any hint on how he did it (what's the command to enter)?
You might try to add a custom button: Hit the tools icon on the commands list, and have a go at the various XBMC builtin commands. There's a ShutDown and a Powerdown for example. I haven't tested these myself but one of these might do what you're looking for.
