In practice, this is far from ergonomic operation is built on 2 separate interfaces, android and xbmc.
Android is the operating system and passes through a named xbmc app Rippl-TV.
It is very comprehensive, but sometimes struggled with the IR remote control too succinct.
Indeed, it was an android interface, and you can imagine what it is to control your smartphone or tablet with a remote control like this; at least when you're on an application that has been designed for touch interaction. In contrast to xbmc, it becomes more flexible as thought to be used in this way even if the absence of key back / play-pause / Advanced is quite debilitating.
Other worries, IR remote control signal was interference with a box connected to the TV tnt, but hey this is a case that does not necessarily instead of being selected as an example.
You can connect a keyboard and / or mouse; I found a keyboard Rii i8 + with integrated touchpad operating 2,4ghz which regulates the problems of ergonomics; he can not just turn on the device that needs an IR signal on wakeup.
In conclusion, it was a hassle to set out, and I had to invest 15 more in another remote, but the result is really nice!
