Re: Few questions

Status bar will be able to be shown/hidden in next release by using a
loopback system (UDP 255.255.255.255) and sending iViewer its own
commands and parsing the command to enable a digital join that the
status bar uses.
There is a few ways to do this in the next version actually, more on
that when release is due.
This can already be done if using the 'ControlSystem' protocols (see
our wiki for the differences between Control Systems and External
Systems)

No plans for multiple control systems in a single GUI file. But you
can already load multiple GUI files into cache by linking a button to
load a new GUI file (see the button properties dialog for more help).

Using hardware buttons for control was not possible previously,
perhaps a recent SDK update has made that possible. I believe it will
still control the volume of the iPhone itself however, which makes it
a pain. The iPhone volume level would show up, but have no reflect to
the actual volume level of any system being controlled. Perhaps we can
route those buttons to perform a digital join action, or maybe perform
commands/macros. We will look into this more for a future release.

To check if a PC is on, just create a system that connects to some
server on the PC (eventghost, MCE Controller, etc) and use the
Connection status digital join to show connection status in the GUI.
If it can connect, then its online. Otherwise its off.
You can then use the WOL helper to generate a command to send via UDP
to wake up the PC if your PC supports WOL feature.
