Sweet. Didn't know that.

I just got this working on my wifi (I can finally take SageTV to bed and watch on my Tablet! ).

I'm not sure if there would be any copyright issues, but I would like to have a more Sage-Like GUI.

On a 10" tablet there's a lot of wasted real estate that could display So much more information.

Just my humble generic 2 cents.

Thanks for the feedback. To be honest, I haven't put much effort into a separate tablet layout (although I should ). I'm hoping in a couple months to get back to working on this, but sadly, I've been took busy with work and other projects to give it more TLC

This app is very cool installed yesty. Just wondering if there is a way to not allow deletes of movies and or tv shows from configuration so kids doesn't accidentally deletes shows.

Also on tv shows if only one episode is available it seems that when I try to click down the menu never pops up with options ot allow me to watch it etc.

Nice work!

Thanks. The part about the delete, is a good idea. I haven't added any abilities to limit actions based on roles, etc, but it would be a good idea. (unfortunately, I have long list of things that I'd like to implement )

As for the single item issue. I just tried this on my device, and I get the option to play it. When you have have a single item, and you select it, do you go into the detail view for that item? (ie, shows actors, etc).

You should post your device, android version, etc, and maybe I can try to replicate it.

This sounds like it might be the same thing I ran into:

Interesting.... When you go to the detail view, can you use the "Context Menu" button on the phone? The tripple dot menu (upper right hand corner) may only work/show on the 4.x devices, on older device, you have to use the hardware menu button.

I've since upgraded my phone to a Galaxy S4, which behaves the same -- no triple-dot menu, but the 'hardware' context menu button does work. I'm surprised I didn't notice that before...

That is interesting... I thought it might be a version issue... but S4 is running 4.x. When I get some time, I'll start back up on this app again... there's bunch of stuff in my queue that I need/want to add, so I'll look into this as well.
