Features
- Remote control through both the widget buttons AND your keyboard!
- Auto-detection of XBMC's virtual keyboard. The widget then automatically shows a text field.
- Start XBMC via SSH (for Linux targets)
- Play a YouTube video link: Drag and drop link or paste link (needs YouTube add-on)
- Exit XBMC: Fn+Backspace
Set up
In the settings pane:
- Fill in the correct ip-address of the computer you're running XBMC on.
- If necessary, change the port number. This widget now uses the WebSocket, NOT the HTTP port! Usually, this value should be kept at default (9090).
- In XBMC: Finally, do not forget to enable "Allow programs on other systems to control XBMC" in "System settings> Services > Remote control"
