Android Tablet and Theater View remote control (Splashtop etc)
« on: January 17, 2012, 07:11:09 am »

Anyone having experience with using Android and remote controlling MC? I'm not talking about Gizmo. That gives to little functions. I want to do what Tremote is for, but I would like it to work on Android. Especially the ASUS Transformer Prime. I've been looking at the Double Splashtop THD, which ran Skyrim remarkably well without latency. If this also supports multitouch, then it would be perfect match I think.

I'm trying to decide whether to purchase a Transformer Prime with Android now, or to wait for the Intel version for Win7 and true Tremote functionality, and windows 8 later on when it's released.

I don't really know how the later versions of Android is... I have a Android phone, but it's with a old firmware. The Prime looks really impressive though. When you just look at the hardware. The thought of it running windows 8, with access to the millions of apps for that platform. Ooooh mama.

Nobody have experience with Splashtop or other similar apps for remote control of Theater View with Android?

I know people say it works fine with iPad, but I'll never purchase on :) I need to know if people have experience with splashtop or similar software on a Android or Windows touch based device, controlling theater view on a PC.
