I think that's only true if you've granted remote access to the tables from
the MediaMVP - at least I had to do that in order to get it to work (it
wasn't the default configuration).

It's not quite that helpful. It tells you that you need to set up SQL access,
but doesn't really give you any clues as to how to go about doing that.

I would imagine that's of limited use, since the GUI settings are lost when
you do a hard reboot or power off. You're unlikely to want to have to set it
up each time - much better to specify the parameters on the command line in
dongle.bin.config. I'd imagine it would be a bit of a pain to enter them
using the remote anyway.
