Finding the best solution for an Android remote
Hey,

I've been working on an Android remote application called Remote+, to start with iv been using the HTTP web api and then SendKey method then I found Plex doesnt recognise half the keys that XBMC defines so I switched to using the Action method. According to the XBMC documentation the Action method shouldnt be used as it runs on the UI thread and might block other commands.

Does Plex fully support the EventServer that XBMC implements? And is the EventServer the best communication method to use with Plex?

Thanks

After looking through the plex code im on the belief that Plex doesnt support the EventServer that XBMC does.



I’ve been trying to get the volume methods exposed via the web api to work with Plex, but if calling SetVolume with anything below 100 mutes the OSX system volume, and 100 or anything above will set the OSX system volume to 100%.



Is there a work around for this? Under XBMC the SetVolume command works fine and it adjusts the volume within XBMC and not the system volume.





Thanks
