Zeroconf not working #683

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start XBMC remote
2. Check using Zeroconf browser on Android phone that XBMC server is advertised 
and visible for phone
3. "No hosts detected" message appears

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect to see name of my XBMC server. 

What version of XBMC Remote are you using?
Latest/current in Google Play store

Which Android device are you using (and which ROM, if custom)?
Galaxy SIII

Which XBMC revision are you running and on which platform?
11, Linux

Zeroconf support was added in 2009, and then apparently removed? 

This is a crucial usability issue that will prevent significant number of 
people from using XBMC remote due to the lack of technical knowlage, especially 
on routers with hyper-active DHCP servers that change IP address every day.

iPhone remote has this working for a long time now. Can something be done about 
it please?
