Thanks for the hint. According to their development site they have indeed changed some functions (like setVolume() ). From the changelog I cannot see any hard incompatibilty but I am compiling the latest version right now and will test everything. Expect an update of Xbmcremote soon.

For anyone interested: Here is a good summary of changes of the Xbmc API which should give you a good feelling on when you can safely update Xbmc and when its better to wait for me to update Xbmcremote:
