[PROJECT] GameEx API

[vsilvalopes]

Hi guys !

As I mentioned in old times, I'm not a developer.

But in my free time I like to learn diferent things, and now I want to know how to develop for Android.

My Idea is to have some sort of GameEx remote. Like XBMC have.

Using your phone or tablet, you can be able to choose a game, and see whats now playing.

For the users that use GameEx for media, some sort of remote control.

So what you guys think ?

The basic to start is how to retrieve and send commands to GameEx?

Any Windows Media Center remote already works with it.

Kustom Kid, I think you didn't captured the idea.

The objectives of this app are the following.

1- Provide a Hub within your cellphone or tablet, so you can see and manage ALL YOUR GAMES whitin GameEx.

So if you want, start a game from your device.

2- Provide an alternative for remote control GameEx, like the many other remotes out there.

So you don't need to buy a remote and a dongle to control GameEx media or navigation features.

3- Maybe see wich GameEx friends are on-line or what the guys are playing.

I know that this is a LOT of Work, so my first goal is to see the GameEx library within my phone/tablet.

Then I will study and add more features.

Someone can point me out?

Looked at the GameEx plugins , but no clue to where start.

Does GameEx have any API so we can send commands and gather information?

Thanks again !

The video shows GameExtender which is a web client that can be accessed over a network and allows you to control GameEx using a type of remote control. One of the links shows how you can view it in a standard browser on a mobile phone.

I miss one sentence and the entire meaning of the post changes. My bad. That would be a great idea using phones and tabs also!
