Sadly not, but I will try to work with some new features to allow users create application profiles and they can export it and share with others. Then after update/install you can select what application you can control and you will se in GMedia profiles.

Thank you. I never imported settings b/c I feared it would mess something up. It's just a pain setting up VLC each time. I tried out XBMC like you suggested awhile back. I guess I just started playing with it a little more and I'm starting to use it. Is there any way to click on a file and have xbmc start playing it? That's the main problem I have with XBMC. I can right click on files and add it to the VLC playlist easily, but I can't figure out how to do this with XBMC. Sorry if this is off-topic.

Also, I can't get files to play from the explorer using winamp. I see the files but I can't get them to play. I'm using the Pro version on a Touch Pro 2.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
I will try to test it today at home but if you redirect port on your router you dont need to add :5656 to adress. What device do you have ? WM or Android?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] karlito55:
WM

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:

Crash after tapping on connect

Hello

I use GRemote Pro on WM6.5.3.

The app starts fine. I can find my PC. When I tap on connect the app crashes and gives me a message saying Unexpected Error.

What to do?

Thanks

Crash on WM6.5.3

The screenshots are attached. I used the find button to find the computer. I am using USB networking. So Only 1 PC is attached.

The first 2 screenshots are the profile that the find button suggested. I have tried using both but end up with the same error as shown in pic 3. The 4th pic shows the abrupt title bar from the application.

Tell me if you need any more details.

Thanks

I love that piece of software. The only thing I miss is a controller to play FPSs like on the Wii.

Cheers, and hope to see my request come true shortly...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Could you show me on the youtube what kind of games, because you can play games using GRemote.

Btw. I'm codding new functionality that allows users select application controlled using GRemote. Major functionality already works but I need to build program database so please give me suggestion, what applications are you using to listen music, watching films, relax, make a presentation etc. I will try to make configuration for this programs and you can use it in the future.

That's a video showing some guns for nintendo wii (less interesting), some games and the way they work on that console(more interesting).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gd2ucfid5UQ

Mainly those kind of games on PCs are played with mouse (to point weapon). I tried Gremote but I found it very innatural and unprecise. MAybe you can achieve a new controller tipe that fits for those kind of games (maybe using new features of our phones, e.g. magnetic compass).

Hope it helps.

cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
But precision based on compass will be completely unusable I think. Wii remote have a lot of extra hardware that allows do thinks like on video.

But I will think about new features...

This thread is not very "realistic" at this point... sifting through 153 pages of commentary is like trying to find the proverbial needle in the haystack.

My problem: GRemote 0.5.2 was working great for me for a couple of weeks, but suddenly my device (Omnia i910 running WinMo 6.5 with SPB Mobile Shell) keeps timing out and I can no longer use GRemote. I've made no changes whatsoever to my device since GRemote started failing.

If I run GServer on my computer and then open GRemote on my device, the GServer software will register frame rates (so the device seems to be communicating with the computer), but I cannot control the cursor on the computer, and after about a minute or less, an error window pops up on the device and says simply "Connection timeout!!!"

I cannot figure out anyway to fix this issue. It's a bummer, because GRemote was working so well for me for a while.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] cpistilli2:
vlc and explorer mode..?

were you able to fix the problem with opening video files when vlc is set to default on the hoast pc ?:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Voltron8Myhat:
Is this in response to GRemote becoming disconnected?

Why would opening a video file with VLC change anything with the device's ability to remain connected to the host?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Did you install other software in the middle time, ofter GRemote? In most cases problem are related with firewall. If you see frame rates in gremote server that means server receives frames, but maybe your firewall software block outgoing frames? Please try to create profile again or use USB connection.

Best regards,

Marcin.

hi there, i'm using a HTC Touch Diamond2 with winmo 6.5 stock rom and i can only get the program to work when it's connected through usb...

application controlled using GRemote

Hi Marcin,

good idea. I think this is exactly what I am looking for, if I don't misunderstand: One skin / set of skins per application.

What I think is the most important application for HTPC users (main target group I think) is a skinset to control Windows Media Center. I am preparing some templates for the current version of GRemote to control Windows Media Center 7 right now. An integration within GRemote would be fantastic.

Other reasonable applications to have support for from my perspective are Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player and PowerPoint.

But these are nearly irrelevant in contrast to Media Center support as there might already exist more convenient MC-plugins for HTPC-users that provide web-browsing-capabilities, YouTube-channels etc. all accessible through a Media Center compatible remote.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
New skin for HTC HD mini

Nice idea, I will thin about it in the future.

I will add Windows Media centrer support of course and PowerPoint but Window Media player you can find in current configuration. About channels like YouTube it can be a little difficult but I think maybe easiest way when you add youtube plugin to XBMC or MediaPortal (if exist).

Today one of our user ask as about support for HTC HD mini. It has new resolution for Windows Mobile devices. So we've just created new skin and now everyone who has device with HVGA (480x320) display can use this skin and enjoy with GRemotePro. You can find this skin also in Sinks section on our website.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] gauravbaadshah:
Suggestions

Hi

I use GRemote Pro & am very happy with it.

With all due respect this software still lacks some features regarding commands.

For eg:

1. There is no win key support as a modifier key for multiple keys in the keyboard tab (there are only alt, ctrl & shift)

2. Also when using multiple modifier keys I cannot specify the order. If a select ctrl & alt & tab, I cannot specify whether ctrl will be pressed followed by alt or alt will be pressed first followed by ctrl.

3. There is no support for multiple keys (or macros), something like first press alt & space, and then press n (to minimize a window).

4. There is also no support for some general commands like minimizing or maximizing windows, clipboard support, switch to another running application, etc

Hope my suggestions are good.

Thanks

GK
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
All your suggestion are good, and I've added some of them to roadmap. But the key macros are little harder to code and I don't have a time to code it in the near feature, but I hope I will try to code it later.

Best regards,

Marcin.

GRemote Pro celebrates first birthday - special price -30%!

April 17th 2009 was a day, when we released the first commercial version of GRemote Pro. From this moment GRemote has been improved much to meet our customer's requirements. We've added support for all Windows versions including missing x64 Vista and Windows 7. Support for bluetooth profiles was implemented and now you don't need any WiFi router to use GRemote at your home or office. We also started porting process to support Android devices which we successfully finished some time ago. Now everyone with Android device can enjoy GRemote Pro including bluetooth profiles in Android 2.0 devices.

But we have not finished yet. Now we are working hard on a wizard tool and application library. If your favourite multimedia application uses any sort of default configuration and you don't want to waste your time making special configuration, please let us know. Send us a name of your media player or any other app your want to control using GRemote Pro.

First birday is a good day to give you a chance to buy GRemotePro in a special price. So don't hesitate and buy it now for only $9,95. Remember if you buy it now, you will have any update in the future and you can use it with any PDA you get.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 1999TL:
marbalon, you know I've been lobbying for VLC media controls defaulted in? I was the one who asked if I could import my VLC media player settings upon a new version of Gremote :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Yes of course ;) In current version you can export command subtree and import it in new vesion, but you don't need this, i will add VLC to application library.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 1999TL:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Purzelkater:
I have tried GRemote Pro Demo on my HTC Touch Pro 2 (WM 6.5) and I will buy it within the next days. It works like a charm out of the box with my netbook over direct bluetooth connection (no IP connect).

Well there is a little graphic/softbar issue on Sense/Manila 2.5.2012 after exit GRemote but its easy to fix with open and close the hardware keyboard.

Against the FAQ my TP2 enables bluetooth on GRemote start automatically. No need to make this manually. :)

Keyboard function it great because I can use the TP2 hardware keyboard and the touchpad on the screen. :D

Now I have a suggestion, maybe other would like it too. ;) Would it be possible to make a "visual feedback" for pressed keys or touch fields? The skins are static now, right? I think it would be nice to have a "highlight" on buttons are pressed on the touch screen. Or if you use the scrollbar on the touchpad skin - then this scrollbar is highlighted whenever you use it. I have make a quick and dirty pic to explain it. ;) Well, I know there must be highlight overlays for all buttons on a skin.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Hi,

Yes visual feedback will be useful, but it not extend functionality... I'm trying to code most important features, but if I will have free time I will try to code this. On the other hand simple static images are easier to draw and skin is more simple. So I agree with you but you need to wait for this.

Best regards,

Marcin.

Is it possible to run Gremote Server without system try icon?

It is very useful feature when you use GRemote to control HTPC in situation when windows explorer is replaced by different shell
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Hmm you are first one who ask about this. I will try to code this as an option, but if want to bring main window you need to execute program and if another copy is running it will be binged up. What do you think about this?

Marcin.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] j_lucas:
I think is a good way to detect that Gremote is already running at start up, if yes so just bring config window to front. But this is not a problem, because most likely when you replace standard windows shell you have no access to most of options / configuration on your system (of course if different shell does not support them).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] clevertrevor777:
External IP?

Has anyone successfully connected to the GRemote Server using an external IP address?

I added a port forward rule for UDP Port 5656 to my Linksys router. Then I added a new computer in GRemote and specified my external IP.

Results: During the countdown, GRemote Server lights up green at about 3 seconds remaining, but "Connection Timeout..." on GRemote.

I then went throught the many painful steps of opening UDP Port 5656 in NIS 2010.

Results: During the countdown, GRemote Server lights up green at about 12 seconds remaining, but "Connection Timeout..." on GRemote.

I have seen a few references to connecting over 3G. Is this the method people are using? What are others' results?

The setup:

Device: Diamond

Radio: CDMA

Carrier: Alltel

Rom: MightyRom6

OS: WM6.5

Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
New version, new price, new quality...

After few weeks of our work we are ready to release new version with really useful tool - Configuration Wizard. Starting from this release, users can select from our database the application that are to be controlled using GRemotePro. So now you don't need to configure every application manually, just can select it from the library. If you can't find your favourite application feel free to send us e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with application name and we will try to add it in next release. There are some other changes described here.

Another good news is new price for GRemotePro. After promotion in April we have decided to keep the price at the level of $9.95 for some time. We hope that it will satisfy more users.

Please, keep sending your comments and reports in regard to our product, we analyze everything that comes from our customers.

Gremote application does not launch

Hi,

After installing the GRemoteProDemoSetup.exe, the application does not launch on my desktop PC. It works fine on my laptop though.

I have tried a few things like booting up desktop PC in diagnostic mode, reinstallation with firewall + symantec disabled. But the gremote.exe just does not launch in my desktop PC (WinXP SP2). And i noticed there is no GBM folder in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data on my desktop PC, although it exists on the laptop.

Does anyone have a clue please?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] kazriel:
works brilliantly, very intuitive, very impressive.

I'm not sure if this could be implemented but itunes support would be fantastic.

Also ideally itunes playlist support would be equally fantastic.

I know alot of people, particularly on these forums prefer winamp but a large number, including myself, are quite happy with itunes.

Being able to access this program and its playlists would be, for me, the icing on the cake for this program. Although I imagine apple have made it exceedingly difficult to do this.

Well done again on a brilliant application

Not working on my HTC Pure

I have the latest netcf and have UDP Port 5656 opened on my firewall.But when I click "Find' on the gremote app on my phone it just says 'Not found.'

I am connected via USB for now and I am not using any firewall except the default windows firewall. Turning off the firewall doesn't help help either.

Any hints?

EDIT: Suddenly it started working this morning... no idea why. At least the WiFi part did, for about 2 minutes. Then i got 'Error. Connection timed out.' pop up on my phone.

EDIT 2: Ok, it WORKS! It wont work vwhen connected via USB/ Active Sync but it does work via WiFi. The reason it had turned off after a minute is because my phones WiFi turns off each time when the Backlight times out.

What an awesome app! I will definitely be getting the Pro Version.
