You can then use the Menu/Edit Buttons option to add a button for that action.

Since we started developing the Able Remote app, we have carefully considered user feedback. We have used this feedback to prioritize the features for each version of the app. We have a list of feature requests and we also have our own ideas for improving Able Remote and expanding its capabilities.

Since we are getting some publicity at the moment, we thought it would be a good opportunity to reach out to all our users and ask them for their wish list of features for Able Remote. Please email us at [email protected] with your ideas. Get your ideas to us before Tuesday.

Able Remote 2.1.0 for Google TV has been released in the Android Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=c ... oid.remote
Turn your Android device into a Google TV remote. Now a featured app in the Google TV Market!

Able Remote 2.1.0 includes:
- Edit feature device buttons are labeled
- Caller ID and SMS notifications display contact photo
- Macros added spotlight app support
- New buttons: previous, next, TV power

We have seen a number of comments from users who mistakenly think there are remote control features missing from Able Remote. We have decided to release this version with labeled buttons in the Menu/Edit buttons screen to make it clear what each icon means.

We have also changed the way Caller ID and SMS notifications are displayed to users. If there is a photo in your contacts for the incoming call, then Able Remote will display that on your TV. Note that the new notification mechanism does not add to the notification history on your TV; you can enable the previous kind of notification in the app Settings.
