Looked on this and decided to give it a try. Some problem to understand the setup, but in the end it works and I am a little bit smarter! (Start to realize that this is part of the charm with all of MP…)
Now everything is up and running and I really like what I get. To be able to schedule a recording regardless where I am is superb. I have been looking for this since the first VCR. And that is only one of the great functions…
Great! and Thanks!

OK, not finished yet but it installed fairly easily - the additional components makes it a bit more complicated. But it all went well. Needed to download [MoBo] Player to play the video stream on the Android too.
The remote control section is perfect but limited - needs to be extended with more screens for the extra commands (WiFi Remote plugin already does them I believe).
Some parts not yet implemented [NYI] but it is rock solid.
I have tried browser based iPiMP but didn't get on with it so well, for me this was easier to get going and understand. This IS noticeably faster.
Hope that work continues on this it is the most complete solution for an Android smart phone, and by implication a tablet.
