Title: JRemote iPhone 6+ native resolution
Post by: Hilton on January 30, 2015, 04:14:47 am
Hi Robert,

I know you scaled the iPhone 6+ version to make use of it's higher resolution but I have a bit of feedback on the sizing of a few things.

The Player Controls are all just a little close together and I think there's a little more room to spread them and make them somewhere between 50% and 100% bigger.
I use JRemote in the car a lot in image list mode which is usually great but I wouldn't mind if it rendered about 20% to 50% larger to make it easier to read and use while in the car.

Maybe you could have a toggle option to render in native iPhone6+ hi-res or the original scaled version?  Before you upgraded from the original scaled version it was the perfect size for use in the car.

A small bug you may have seen already, you can get JRemote stuck in Landscape mode accidently after watching a video and it wont go back to portrait without shutting it down and restarting.

Cheers
Hilton

A simplified "now playing" view for use in a car is planned.
There is no easy way to allow an app to run in 2X resolution on a 3X device. I think that creating an upscaled version would be too much work at this time. You would need larger bitmaps, larger text and larger measurements all over. Quite a bit of work.

Regarding stuck in landscape mode, the next version will allow rotation in all directions on at least the 6+, so that should fix this issue.

Thank you for the feedback:)

Thanks good to know! Will the landscape mode be similar to the iPad version?

No, there`s no space for that really. Initially, it will be the same view as in portrait, but "now playing" will have the playlist always visible.
