Roku Player DVPRemote for iPod Touch

It’s been so long since I posted, I hope I can be forgiven for posting what at first glance may (a) not necessarily be a Vera-related “feature”, and (b) appear to some to be a commercial plug (it isn’t).

I was just reading about an iPod Touch app called DVPRemote for use with the Roku Player, which NetFlix subscribers often use in conjunction with their account, to watch streaming videos.

The neat thing about this app, which I guess Vera could be taught as well, is that it goes out onto the home network and “discovers” any Roku boxes, which the app then controls. I could envision Vera becoming more of a media control center in the same way.

Hope someone else finds this potentially interesting. I intend to start using my iPod Touch with Vera, now that the “Mobile UI” has matured a bit since last year.

There is a similar app for the Tivo’s.
