I have the latest nightley from the ppa and xbmcremote complains that my installed version is too old. Is there a way to just ignore or skip the version checking?

I have released 0.6.1 today where I have disabled the version check. I will try to find some time tomorrow to make the version checking more reliable.

Edit: The version of xbmc I have installed is 2.11.0-git20111103-0ubuntu1-ppa1-natty and is from the LP-PPA-team-xbmc-unstable/natty PPA.

Hey ya all!
The MeeGo coding competition voting is running now! Don't forget to vote for Xbmcremote
Also, I'm wondering how many of you are using Xbmcremote on the N9. I guess the N900 users are still a lot more.
Thre reason I'm asking is that I'm currently working on NFC integration. You can stick NFC tags to your various Xbmc boxes and then only hold the N9 towards such a tag and Xbmcremote will automatically connect to the associated Xbmc. Anyone has other ideas for features for Xbmcremote?

The official xbmc remote app for Android is fantastic. There are some features it has that would be great to have on my N9 and a few that would just be nice.
1) thumbnails/album covers when scrolling through the list of movies/shows/music/etc.
2) the ability to quick scroll by dragging my finger down on the right side of the list (like the N9 contacts app)
3) A more fully featured "remote." Forward, back, up down, etc. Everything required to navigate on screen. (like the official app)
4) Keep the thumbnail in the "now playing" screen the correct aspect ratio.
5) the ability to select what shows up on the home screen or set a default selection, I don't have any pictures or music so I'd prefer it if the app when straight to the videos.
6) The official android app had a feature that integrated into the sharing api. If I clicked any Youtube links in the browser or from an email or whatever, I got asked if I wanted to play it on xbmc. This was a great feature that I used all the time. Is there any chance of getting this on the N9?
Keep up the good work!

The andorid app's remote looks like this: https://g1.gstatic.com/android/marke...ote/ss-480-1-5
As far as I can see, the remote on the N9 has up, down, left, right, select, back and menu. I believe you have almost all of the same button actions as the Android app, but they're just spread out across Xbmcremote's UI. For example, on the now playing screen, there are pause, play, forward and reverse buttons. Why not add these to the remote screen as well?
As for sharing youtube links with xbmc, is there a way to tap into the sharing api on the N9? When I'm at a website, I can click the menu button then click "share this link." On my own device, the available options are facebook, text message and email. Would it be possible to add an option to share with xbmcremote, which would then parse the link, grab the unique video identifier, and pass it along to the YouTube XBMC addon?
Thanks so much for listening to my suggestions!

Hi!
i have a problem with xbmcremote.
i can connect to xbmc with it but everytime i try to play music, xbmc starts the title and the app closes. after that i cant open the app again. it opens and closes immediately. i have to reopen xbmc to get the app working on the phone again.
any ideas?
best regards

I've just updated XBMC from git (few hours ago), but xbmc-remote still tells me, that I should upgrade XBMC to version, newer tha 23.09
Any ideas?
Btw:
