missing 'typical' EPG timeline presentation
I just started with MediaPortal and did choose aMPdroid as remote control. I like it very much although I miss a specific EPG presentation: the timeline with the channels as lines one above the other.Many Greetings

Other than that, I really like aMPdroid.
4/5
Given IPR restrictions, my home channels limit their "Play services" (their in-house streaming option), so the options are VPN or access to my own server where the TV-> stream is done in the relevant country.
Is it just me or is there a general problem with the EPG if you are in a different timezone than the TV server? My EPG shos the EPG as per my timezone, and when I click a program that is for sure not running at this point in time then this fails. If this not my misconception, this is for sure something that needs fixing.
I would want a list of the available channels with the option to just start streaming what was on. No detrour via EPG.

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!

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.
