Control multiple MediaPortals with your iPhone or iPod touch including the following features:
▶ Remote Control MediaPortal
You can control MediaPortal like you would do with a normal remote control: There are buttons to navigate (up, down, left, right, ok and back), action buttons (menu, info, home, fullscreen, channel up, channel down), volume buttons (increase and decrease volume, mute and unmute) and player control buttons (play/pause, fast forward, rewind, next, previous) and gestures to control the most common features without even looking at your device!
▶ “Configuration free”
There is no need to configure CouchPotato, it will auto-detect all MediaPortal installations on your local network. Just tap a MediaPortal in the server list and you are ready to control it.
▶ Open plugins
You can select a plugin from a list to directly open it
▶ Power options
You can shutdown your HTPC, send it to hibernate or standby, suspend it, exit MediaPortal or log off windows
