Just hoping a few more developers would chime in. I can do development work, but Bluetooth programming is an entirely new area. There are several bdremote daemons for Linux out there. Hopefully they'll have enough information to let us know how to connect and emulate a BD remote.   09/18/2009, 05:27 PM   #4 (permalink) alan7467 Member     Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 144 Thanks: 115 Thanked 19 Times in 14 Posts I would love to control my PS3 via my Pre. Doesn't the iPhone have an App (perhaps homebrew) with the capability?   09/18/2009, 05:35 PM   #5 (permalink) JSX Member   Join Date: Jul 2009 Posts: 73 Thanks: 15 Thanked 7 Times in 5 Posts Interested...   09/18/2009, 05:45 PM   #6 (permalink) richip Member   Join Date: Aug 2009 Posts: 27 Thanks: 2 Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts Kindly specify, as well, if you have any development or design skills that might be useful with this endeavor.   09/18/2009, 07:04 PM   #7 (permalink) PreGk Member   Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 338 Thanks: 26 Thanked 24 Times in 18 Posts Very interested!!!! I use an infrared remote with an IR adapter, and it doesn't turn the ps3 on/off....This app would save me $60 because I won't have to buy the Logitech Harmony adapter.   09/18/2009, 07:27 PM   #8 (permalink) diomark Member   Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 768 Thanks: 37 Thanked 267 Times in 82 Posts Quote: Originally Posted by richip Or any Bluray remote control device for that matter.

It'd be great to have a full on virtual remote app for the pre that could replace the Harmony and also use Blutooth for the PS3. I'm tired of my Harmony remotes' keys going bad every 1.5 years - the build quality stinks! I'm interested in the new Acoustic Research remotes- but they too don't have the blutooth remote thing- so this on PRe would be huge!   09/19/2009, 12:15 PM   #11 (permalink) mk3 Member     Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: GMT -8 Posts: 148 Thanks: 108 Thanked 14 Times in 14 Posts I think that would be a cool idea. If it could be done for PS3 then what about for the Wii as well? Imagine the possibilities...   09/19/2009, 01:04 PM   #12 (permalink) richip Member   Join Date: Aug 2009 Posts: 27 Thanks: 2 Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts I'm thinking of working with the Mojo SDK as much as possible, though I doubt the bluray functionality we'd need would be currently exported. So I'll have to look at various communications mechanisms between Mojo apps and the underlying bluetooth subsystem.   09/19/2009, 01:08 PM   #13 (permalink) YBCold Member     Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 196 Thanks: 9 Thanked 20 Times in 15 Posts I'm VERY Interested in this! I can't stand having to take my controler off the charging stand just to watch a movie. Please someone make this happen, I'd gladly pay for an app like this and I know my Best firend who also has a Pre would do the same.   09/19/2009, 01:11 PM   #14 (permalink) zerty55 Member   Join Date: Aug 2009 Posts: 58 Thanks: 12 Thanked 5 Times in 3 Posts sounds very interesting!   09/19/2009, 01:24 PM   #15 (permalink) scoobdude Member   Join Date: Jun 2009 Posts: 372 Thanks: 14 Thanked 23 Times in 21 Posts Quote: Originally Posted by diomark This is something my WM6 device could do and it was awesome.
