Thanks a lot for this great application.
I'm using latest XBMC server (v11 R3) and xbmc remote 0.9.
There are two major issues for me:
1. I cannot seem to find a way to add a folder/m3u list of file to the playlist - only a single file at a time. Is there a way to do that which I missed?
2. Is there a way to activate the on screen display when video/music plays (the one that the pressing the 'm' key brings up)? Through this menu it is possible to do things like select subtitles, and other tweaks which are very much missing.
When this menu is up, it is possible to use the regular navigation controls to do all the operations, just need this 'm' key press simulation
Thanks.

"http://[server url]/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=PlayFile([playlist path + .m3u file])"
playlists, files and folders can be appended to current playlist with:
"http://[server url]/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=AddToPlayList([playlist/file/folder])"
(2) can be implemented with this command:
"http://[server[/url] address]/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=SendKey(0xF04D)"
I tested all and they work great
Is it possible for you to add this somewhere?
I was very impressed by a feature in this remote application:
Yesterday i realized that when i get a phone call, the sound is automatically muted until the call is ended - i thought something was wrong at first with my audio system - this REALLY is a great feature - thanks for your work.

I have to check how much effort it is to make it work smoothly without adding additional config hazzle for the user.

A great more feature would be to pause the music instead of lowering the sound and also pause movie playback if a movie is playing.

about pausing the music i guess everyone has their preference:
When i listen to a new album, i don't want to miss songs, so pausing instead of lowering down volume is much better.
can you consider about adding this feature to a next version? i believe there will be more users using this feature besides of me.
