boxee remote for iphone/ipod now available on apple app store

[tsella]

title says it all - http://bit.ly/boxeeremote

• the boxee remote app has two modes: Gesture and Buttons
• in the Gesture mode you need to hold down your thumb and move it around in order to navigate.
• clicking on the boxee logo acts as Select/Play/Pause
• dragging the boxee logo to the edges of the screen will act as a continuous up/down/left/right
• clicking in an input field will open up the iPhone Qwerty keyboard and will enable you to easily enter text
• the app works over WiFi, so make sure the WiFi on your iPhone is turned on

basic troubleshooting:

1. make sure you are running a recent boxee client version (http://app.boxee.tv/download). you can check your current version via boxee Settings > General.
2. under boxee Settings > Network > Servers, make sure the Web Server is enabled on port 8800.

It works easily and well. It does take a bit of getting used to the gestures, but all in all it is a great app!

the remote app for iPhone worked great for me! i was very impressed that there was no need to do setup or anything... everything was automatic. even tried it first with my older version of boxee (before installing the latest upgrade) and it worked with that as well.

great work everybody!

Can we have a left handed iPhone remote? The Back button is at the bottom on the left - underneath my hand. The Back button on the right, or in the middle would be better.

Hmm this does not work on my Windows Boxee setup
Works fine if I use Boxee on my Mac

I can get it to connect to Win Boxee but nothing happen when I use the app
