I solved it by creating another .desktop file telling the system what to do with xbmc: URI's and writing my own NFC tag of the type URI instead of text.

And now it works the way I want!

This will open the application for any xbmc: URI but it won't make it connect to the specified server. I only use one XBMC server and the application automatically connects to it, so for me it's not a problem.


Just thought I'd let you know

/usr/share/applications/xbmcremote_harmattan_interface.desktop

Code:
