cheers for looking into it mate, i havent been able to contact anyone yet who has compiled it for maemo 5, there are a couple, but they seem to be the same fellas posting on all forums. and dont seem active even though they were posting only a few months ago.
the squeezeplay itself would be the ultimate remote its unfortunate they dropped it.
i could live with the primary controls only they are the only essentials, showing current playlist and album art would be great, browsing media and switching between players would be killer.
just a shame its so different from the way the vlc app sends and recieves
