Foxmote

Yet another XBMC remote, compatible frodo and above.

What is Foxmote?
Foxmote is a Chrome extension that serves as a remote control for XBMC installations. With Foxmote, you can navigate, select, and control your XBMC host from your computer. It provides instant access to your media library, allowing you to browse and play movies, TV shows, and music. Foxmote offers easy navigation through keyboard shortcuts and requires the activation of 'Allow programs on other systems to control XBMC' in your XBMC host settings. Some conflicts may arise with existing applications due to the use of XBMC's JSON-RPC API for communication, but this can be resolved by changing the TCP port on which XBMC is listening.

Funktioniert sehr gut nur werden leider die Bilder und Cover meiner Filme und Serien nicht dargestellt was das Scrollen durch eine Serie mit vielen Staffeln leider nicht sehr schön gestaltet

none of the keys worked for me.

About half of the buttons don't do anything. I use my smartphone to really remote control xbmc, this just when I am in front of my laptop. But again, half the buttons don't do jack. And no, no apps running on the xbmc computer. Works perfect with other apps.
