infernoDS Posted March 8, 2006 Author Posted March 8, 2006 A quick update about v0.3: RSS is as good as done now, and as it only takes about 2mb ram on the PC for DSRemote to parse and display a RSS feed and its pages (without cache, that is) I think in the future a RSS reader on the DS is certainly possible as well, and I will be focusing on that when TCP is done - for now a server that parses the feed for you is much more faster then parsing the whole feed through the DS's processor.I will keep you informed .

I would love to have RSS on my DS! Can't wait!
infernoDS Posted March 12, 2006 Author Posted March 12, 2006 I was cut off from the internet at my girlfriend's house (installing a wireless network on SP1, with another lan connection already running is a biatch, especially when you ruin the LAN connection which cuts you off from the i-net) but I'm glad to inform you that the only thing that's left to do for my to get RSS working, is... word wrapping! .So expect something soon .
HotBalls Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) Could any one help me out? I want to know how to do this stuff to my DS, but I have no clue how to start. I need some step be step Instructions. Edited March 14, 2006 by HotBalls
infernoDS Posted March 16, 2006 Author Posted March 16, 2006 There are two sides DSRemote operates on. The server must be run under Windows (preferably Win XP), while the client (the DS app) must be run on the DS. So how do you run the DS app on the DS? Well, first of all you must have a way to play homebrew application on your DS. For this, you will need to either flash your DS, use Passme, or have a compatible wireless network card. If you need help with this or I think a lot of people on this forums are able to help you out with this.Secondly, you will need a way to store the app. This can be done with a flashcard or a gba movie player, once again, people here can help you with this. To use the wireless apps like DSRemote, though, a Ralink rt2500 compatible wireless network card is compulsory. Good luck!
m2pt5 Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 To use the wireless apps like DSRemote, though, a Ralink rt2500 compatible wireless network card is compulsory. No, you just need to have a wireless router or a SoftAP that you use to do WiFi with your DS. Ralink is only necessary for WMB.
infernoDS Posted March 17, 2006 Author Posted March 17, 2006 Sweet ^^. Didn't know that yet, so if I'm right you can use your DS on other ap's as well? Even if it's not 802.11b? (which I highly doubt)

infernoDS Posted March 20, 2006 Author Posted March 20, 2006 Zomgwtf?!  Jup, that was exactly my response when after installing Mac OsX on my PC, Windows XP's boot.ini was messed up. Silly me who doesn't have a repair disk had to cope with a buggy Mac OS (great OS nonetheless) and a failing XP partition. The fact that I'm posting here right now means that I was able to recover my XP partition completely ^yay^, and I will continue coding, but not before I give you a small demo of what I've been working on (RSS and stuff).So with no further ado, enjoy! (please note that this is a work in progress, so I don't guarantee it being fully bug-free)dsremote_wip_0.3.0.zip
Mikey242 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Nice one inferno. Some of the options under "DSRemote" (on the DS) once you have connected dont seem to work (Echo and quick Chat). Anyway nice work inferno, im really looking forward to your next release! Thanks!
infernoDS Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 (edited) You are right! My humble apologies . Completely forgot about these functions. I'll see what I can do after I'm finished smoking my ciggie . Edited March 23, 2006 by infernoDS
infernoDS Posted March 24, 2006 Author Posted March 24, 2006 A quick update for DSRemote Which features will be in v0.3.0?- Full RSS reading- Printing and saving RSS feeds- A new printing method (maybe nice to include in textwriter apps) Coming in v0.3.0 updates (v0.3.1, v0.3.2 etc.)- Mail checking- A new shell (?) Stay tuned!
RobM Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 (edited) Sooo... I am guessing it is dead? Edited April 14, 2006 by RobM
infernoDS Posted May 12, 2006 Author Posted May 12, 2006 Jep, I'm afraid the project is dead because with the new TCP thingy, things like ndsmail make my app a bit useless. I will probably release DSRemote Lite together with an binary soon so we'll have the most important functionality: a remote for Winamp that isn't bothered by all the other stuff I've implented over the months (rss, mail, etc etc.).Thanks for using my app anyway!
