In previous versions, whenever I switched XBMC profiles the IOS remote would auto sync to the new profile. Now I have to pull down each section so it will sync manually. I certainly found the previous behavior much more convenient. I hope this is just a bug and this functionality can be added back.
FYI, I know that the profile cannot currently be changed from the XBMC remote, I am using a home automation system that I can access from the iPad, that changes the profile by calling a python script that uses the XBMC libraries and calls ...
... to allow me to swicth profiles remotely. As I mentioned, in the past when I did this, the XBMC remote would pick up the correct info as soon as I clicked on movies or TV shows, now I have to pull down to trigger a sync in each "area
".
It would be much better if this call could be made from the official XBMC remote directly. I guess for some reason "xbmc.send_action" commands can't be sent from the remote?
