I get the following error when doing a gradle build:

\android-xbmcremote-sandbox\app\build\res\all\debug\values-v21\values.xml:7: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'android:TextAppearance.Material'.

@freezy: Can you help me, please?

Right now, importing 1200 artists and 500 albums takes about 10 seconds on a Nexus S. This seems pretty slow. The current algorithm is as follows:

• Read HTTP body into a String buffer
• Use JSONTokenizer to serialize it into a JSONObject
• Loop through the JSONArray of the response
• INSERT each item (ON CONFLICT REPLACE constraint on the ID will remove duplicate entries)
• DELETE items with timestamp < current time

It's probably faster to just update current entries. Ideas in the comments.

Since we have tab hosts the action bar stays pretty much static for every tab. Add some mechanism that allows customization per tab, such as not displaying (or graying out) the refresh button when a "live" list is displayed.

See ContentObserver at AlbumsFragment.java. Enabling requery() results in an ANR.

Was there compelling reason to create a homegrown action bar support instead of using ActionBarSherlock (http://www.github.com/JakeWharton/ActionBarSherlock)? It is a mature and full featured product.
I was planning on creating my own fork of xbmc-remote with fragment layouts and drawer-navigation; with dependencies on ActionBarSherlock and my own v4 support library fork (which is compatible with ActionBarSherlock and NineOldAndroids.. http://kedzie.github.io/Support_v4_NineOldAndroids). But I would love to take advantage of work you've done so far with the offline database, JSON, and fragments. Would you consider merging our efforts?

If possible, this should happen in a transparent way via some abstraction layer. It could even be the content provider that decides when to fetch data from the DB and when from XBMC directly.

Post ideas in the comments.

Can't compile the source code,
have the error "The method toInt() is undefined for the type
JSONRPC.Version.VersionResult" in /src/org.xbmc.android.jsonrpc.client/JsonRpcClient.java .
The marked error is in line
return apicall.getResult().toInt();

I'm developing a fork of the Android driver app for MetaWatch (metawatch.org) - something that would be really neat would be for the xbmc remote app to integrate with the watch (so that I could, for example, pause the current program directly from my watch - A remote for a remote!)

Basically all that would be required would be:

1. Listen to the headset play/pause/skip intents and act accordingly
2. Broadcast a "Now playing" intent the way music players do.

(1) would make the watch app's existing media controls "just work" - (2) would let me listen for those intents, and display the now playing info on the watch's screen.

Should we only sync the database when the refresh button is pressed? At the moment every time Music is opened the database is re-synced. Or should we do it when the application is opened?

On very large libraries this could slow the phone down a lot?

Looks like the image library (glide?) is not set to send the account credentials as HTTP basic auth, so you get no images back, even if the jsonrpc works fine.

Is this app released under GPL like the previous one?

I have noticed that if you clear the database then click on Music it populates the database with data but does not update the list view. Sometimes switching tabs updates the list, other times it does not.

After the database is populated getContentResolver().notifyChange(uri, null); is called but this does not seem to trigger a list update.

I just forked this repository and tried to import it in my IntelliJ. I opened the repository's root in IntelliJ,

In IntelliJ, there's no directory, only files: .gitignore, .gitmodules, build.gradle, etc.

So, when I go to File -> Project Settings -> Modules there is no module. When I try to "Import Module" and select build.gradle, I get the following error message after a while:

The project is using an unsupported version of the Android Gradle plug-in (0.9.2). The recommended version is 0.14.2.

Consult IDE log for more details (Help | Show Log)

Any help appreciated.

I always get failed to parse messages.

If i use 1 instead of milliseconds for id

https://github.com/freezy/android-xbmcremote-sandbox/blob/master/src/org/xbmc/android/jsonrpc/api/AbstractAPI.java#L64

the file view works.

The other calls get better error messages.

This one is not about designing a graphical layout that works for tablets, but organizing the code in a way that it is maintainable for tablets and phones.

I'm building using android studio 0.4.5 on arch linux. I have my xbmc install listening on port 3737, and the remote did not find the xbmc instance. manual configuration seemed to work, but when I swipe down to sync:

Instead of pressing back hardware key you press the top left icon it does not crash next time you click on Music.
