Pocket Blu

[Jeremy]

Has anyone used the app Pocket Blu with their Blu Ray player? I know it only works with certain discs so I have yet to give it a shot.

Eh, tried my limited library but no joy here... Anyone else?

It's a very limited amount of discs so don't feel bad.

Picked this up after seeing the post. Inglorious Basterds is one of the Blu-Rays that this works with. If I can talk my gf into watching the movie, then I'll write a review.

It's an app that some blu ray movies can take advantage of. It allows you to connect your Android device up to certain blu ray players and you can use it as a remote and see special features from the movie.

pretty much exactly what it does, just finished watching Inglorious Basterds on it. It took a while to connect the first time and the Blu-Ray has to constanty load things like a video game before movie play. Kinda annoying. What sucks is that it loses the wifi connection if it goes to sleep, then you have to wait a while before it connects back to the device when you wake up the phone. I haven't viewed the extra content, but so far, i'd rather use my ps3 controller.

There is a option to force wifi to stay on all of the time. Its in the main wifi settings and not the app.
