User Reviews

Remote for MPC is praised for its simplicity, reliability, and essential media control features without ads or complications. Users appreciate the lightweight design and ease of setup. However, recurring issues include lack of network drive access, poor seek bar functionality without time info, occasional non-working controls, inconvenient button layout, and limited connection options. Several users request additional features like audio track switching and subtitle toggling for a more complete remote experience.

Reliable connection with instant or quick connectivity to MPC-HC.
Includes all essential controls like play, pause, skip, and volume adjustment without ads.
Lightweight and functional, with customizable jump forward/reverse increments and physical key support.
No ads and no complicated setup process, appreciated by users.

Cons

Lack of support for network drives which makes the app less useful for some users.
Seek bar does not display time information, making it difficult to navigate to a specific point in the video.
Controls like seek and file info do not always work properly for some users.
Buttons sometimes too close or positioned inconveniently, leading to mis-taps; desire for customizable layout or larger icons.
Requires static IP address and cannot use NetBIOS names, limiting connection options.
Absence of features like audio track changer and Subtitle on/off toggle requested by multiple users.

Super handy, the only thing I could wish for is to set the jump distance manually.

Excellent, minimalistic remote that does exactly what I need! ...but, could you fork it or update it to work with MPC-BE as well? It'd be of great help to me! Edit: my mistake. PC's firewall was blocking it.
