Remote 2 questions

I have the remote 2 app on my iPod and it connects to an TX NR-609. I really like the app but there are a few things that it chokes on.

For example, with Pandora playing, I can't switch to a new Pandora station or other internet feature. If I hit the remote-control icon in the lower right, then hit the ">" on the "NET" button, it goes to a display showing what is currently playing. It lets me skip to the next song or pause. It doesn't have a way for me to "like" or "dislike" the song (I have to use the real remote for that).

If I then hit "NET TOP", it thinks for a while and does nothing.
If I hit the back-arrow button at the top left, it also thinks for a while and does nothing.

There doesn't see to be a way for me to switch to a different Pandora station. There also doesn't seem to be a way to leave Pandora and go to a different "NET" application. In the demo mode this seems to work but not when connected to an NR-609.

Hi gpl,

Here is what I'd like for you to do, please reboot your network if you can then uninstall and reinstall the app and see if this works.

I've done this a few times. I found that uninstalling and reinstalling that app is sometimes the quickest way to get it working again. If the autoconnect feature is used, sometimes it seems to get stuck indefinately and reinstalling it is the only solution.

I'll try this again tonight though.

It would be nice if Onkyo could put a video on YouTube showing this app working with Internet radio and Pandora. I just can't find a way to change to a different Pandora or Internet Radio station and it would be interesting to see how to do it when it's working.

Hi gpl,

I will send your suggestion to the proper department to see if they can put this on our "how to" YouTube video section.

Any update on this?

Hi mightyrobo,

The following is the only we have so far. Keep in mind it has not been updated to reflect the new features. We are currently working on getting the new up soon.

Thank you.

Thanks for the link, but I was referring to the functional problems of the app where it gets hung up and doesn't allow the user to navigate back to the list of stations or use the Net top button. Any update on fixing these bugs?
