Remote Control for OMX Player on Raspberry Pi - A Review

The remote control application for OMX Player offers a streamlined solution for video playback on Raspberry Pi devices. While it caters specifically to Raspberry Pi owners, its functionality is tailored for users familiar with the platform.

Overview
<ul>
 <li>A straightforward method to enjoy videos on Raspberry Pi with minimal resource usage.</li>
 <li>Relies on an SSH server and OMX Player, both commonly implemented in Raspberry Pi setups.</li>
</ul>

Limitations
<ul>
 <li>This application does not represent a comprehensive media player.</li>
 <li>It is not a generic SSH client.</li>
 <li>The application does not extend its remote control capabilities to other Raspberry Pi functions such as GPIO control or system monitoring.</li>
</ul>

Features and Usability
<ul>
 <li>A large, user-friendly remote control interface with customizable layouts.</li>
 <li>Full support for hardware volume buttons, enhancing the user experience.</li>
 <li>The ability to browse files while concurrently watching videos.</li>
 <li>Maintains an active connection to OMX Player in the background, allowing the device to perform other tasks without interruption.</li>
 <li>Quick access to remote controls via notifications for added convenience.</li>
 <li>Includes support for subtitles and multiple audio streams.</li>
 <li>Optional "&quot;screen&quot;" functionality to recover lost connections easily.</li>
 <li>Password-based or public key SSH login options for user flexibility.</li>
 <li>A "killall" feature serves as a last resort to terminate an unresponsive OMX Player session. The "&quot;screen&quot;" option is recommended for connections prone to frequent drops.</li>
 <li>Offers reboot/shutdown and TV on/off controls, providing additional convenience to users.</li>
 <li>An integrated IMDb lookup feature (requires IMDb app installation) enhances movie browsing capability.</li>
 <li>Folder play functionality enables automatic advancement to subsequent files.</li>
 <li>URL playback allows for manual URL management, sharing with OMX Remote from external applications, and configuring multiple URL play commands.</li>
 <li>Experimental video playback from device storage (via sharing from Photos or Gallery apps) broadens usability options.</li>
</ul>

Troubleshooting Assistance
<ul>
 <li>If file listing retrieval fails, consider logging into your Raspberry Pi using a standard SSH client to confirm connectivity and credentials.</li>
 <li>If file listings are visible but playback fails, attempt running OMX Player directly on the Raspberry Pi as a diagnostic measure.</li>
 <li>For further assistance, reaching out via email is encouraged if issues persist.</li>
</ul>

Thank you for engaging with this review. We hope you find the specific features beneficial in enhancing your media playback experience on Raspberry Pi.
