I noticed something similar - when screen goes to "sleep" it disconnects any WiFi connections I currently have (found the same thing when I am sharing an internet connection).

Stock Verizon 6.5 ROM here. I'm happy you've never seen this issue but there are many, many others like myself who have and it has never been reproducible like it has been when running wmc remote.

I hope this might open the door to a clue to finding the cause.

Try changing the following key to dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms]
"HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended"=dword:00000001

App is excellent. Thanks author.
I have few suggestions:
- could you make it multipoint, when I can add a few servers and switch between them in menu;
- it would be great to add possibility of automatic server address choosing by phone IP acquired. So imagine, at home I have addresses 192.168.0.X and server address is 192.168.0.111, however at work I have addresses 192.168.1.X and the server is 192.168.1.111. App can determine the address which is acquired by phone by DHCP and automatically choose right server or, if there are a few in this network, first found or last used...


The app crashed when my laptop lost wi-fi. App somehow have connected to it when it was unrichable. But when I clicked on control button it crashed.

One other issue I'm finding is that if I allow my Touch Pro 2 to "standby" with the remote running, it enters the "sleep of death" (commonly reported issue with the HTC devices). I'm forced to reset my phone to get it working again. This might actually be a good thing as this issue has been notoriously hard to repro on demand and the fact that this happens 100% of the time with this app might make finding a fix a little easier. Anybody have any ideas on how to trace exactly what might be happening here?

I have the same problem

DONATE TO ME
Great product

I have it loaded on my HD2 and have really high hopes for this app.

Here is some feedback:

- I have been having the "On Sleep disconnect" issue.
- If the app disconnects because it goes to sleep, reconnecting doesn't work
- If I connect to an instance of VMC and the buttons come up, but I do not receive an acknowledgement message on the Media Center PC, pressing any button will cause the app to crash.
- 20% of the time that I connect to WMC I do not receive an ack

Some of the features that I would request:

- Dedicated record button on the home screen
- VNC features (ie, mouse/keyboard control)
- I haven't looked to see if this is already implemented, but pushing the channel listings to the phone so we can directly change the channel w/o having to pull the on-screen menu up.

Good work so far! I really really REALLY hope this project doesn't die out before it reaches its potential. That would be really sad and would mean I would need to go program my own remote control (which I already have too much on my plate to do that).
