I want to use my hudl to watch iPlayer on my telly. If I connect it via HDMI cable is there a way I can use my smartphone as a remote?
If there isn’t, there should be 😀

There is an app called tablet remote but I don’t think it will act as a remote for iPlayer.

Only work around I can think of is not connecting your tablet to the TV via HDMI and finding an app that will ‘beam’ iPlayer to your TV via DLNA. If you don’t have a DNLA TV then you could get Now TV for a tenner. That will put iPlayer on your TV.

Ta mate, i’ll look into those ideas.

Get an extra long HDMI cable and use the tablet.

Install xbmc on the hudl. Install the iPlayer plugin.
Now on your phone install xbmc remote.
After setting up the remote you can now control iPlayer
