iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
I Am working on some code optimized to be easy to use on iPhone.
I used an IUI library for this project and it looks very nice on my iPhone 3G - http://code.google.com/p/iui/
I have uploaded first "beta" version of my work and here it is:

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
Looks nice. I'm curious how it will look in the end. Do you have implemented code to handle long button presses (this "withoutRelease" and "ButtonRelease" stuff)?
Please post software-related questions in the forum - PMs will only be answered, if really private, thanks!
Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
At this time, this script does not support long button presses. I tried to use script from Webserver demo ("withoutRelease" and "ButtonRelease" stuff), but the IUI interface is not "compatible" with frames..
I will try something other solution, but I am not so much good in Javascript.

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
I think It is not possible to handle long button presses on iPhone, because the Safari browser on iPhone generates onmousedown event at the same time as onmouseup event - when finger up

I have only one idea, create button named "Repeat" - Press button "Repeat" and after it any other button will start repeating a will stop after second press of button "Repeat". But as I say, the javascript is a little problem for me.

New version supports long button presses ! On iPhone is long button presses realized by special repeat toogle button, on other PC browsers works long button presses normally!

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
I have this Native iPhone and iPod touch application completed if anyone is interested in me releasing it to the AppStore? It is instantaneous response time to EventGhost and emulates the MCE remote so all your current EG macros and setup will just work with this.

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
OK I will submit it to Apple tonight. It takes about 7 days before it will appear in the AppStore because Apple hand reviews every single application.martin.m wrote:Nice work and yes, please release it to appstore.
I had originally written an Iphone frontend for my application Intelliremote, but since Intelliremote users don't use EventGhost and EventGhost users are die hard and probably won't ever use Intelliremote I decided to create iPhone/iPod Touch apps for both!
A list of all my iPhone apps can be found here if interested in checking out some of my other work. I have a MediaMonkey, JRiver Meda Center, BlueSocket applications also.

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
I have done a new version of web plugin.
What's new:
- some bugfixes in javascript
- new css layout
- better loading speed
- new icons
updated 2008_10_17:
- removed arrow where button send direct commands (favorite channels etc..)
for use on PC I advice you to use Safari browser, because repeating works faster against firefox.

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
I love the interface. Thank you very much for working on it. I have simplified it a bit for my use. I am having no problems with Firefox 3 on OSX or my iPhone, but Safari 3.12 on OSX is having real trouble with some buttons. I was about to rip out the repeat support since I don't need it, but I'm curious if you have noticed anything. Thanks.

PS - You don't happen to use XBMC do you? If you do, would you consider integrating http://tlrobinson.net/projects/xbmciphone/ , it would be awesome. The only downside to that web app is that it does not support Libraries. There is a native iPhone app that has library support, http://remote.collect3.com.au/ , which is now open source, so maybe they could be integrated. I'd be happy to work on it myself, although my js skils are rather primitive.

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
Thanks for posting. This is a great start to setting my iPhone Remote. I have been playing with IUI myself to auto-generate HTML files for controlling X10 devices based on existing Activehome Pro configuration.
Anyway, I had a few problems getting your files to work: 1) Relative pathnames to css and js files were incorrect. On line 9,10,16,17 remove "../" so that it just reads "iui/iui.css" etc. 2) Remove extra "</script>" on line 14.
Hope that helps anyone else trying to set this up.

Re: iPhone optimized web remote control for Webserver plugin
Fantastic UI. Using this to control pretty much everything on the PC now.
What should I look into in order to add a status check to the UI? It is super easy adding commands to be sent to Eventghost. Is it complicated asking questions and receiving an answer?
EX: Is MediaMonkey open? If yes, then change start button color from black to white.
