Hi, 
I have the same issue with the 'ratings-bar' becoming greyed out and inaccessible. So far I haven't been able to reproduce, although Front Row seems to be a factor. When the 'Front Row quick exit' is greyed out I know that the iTunes ratings bar is greyed out too. It also happens regularly when iTunes stops at the end of a playlist. Using QuickTime also seems to be a factor sometimes. Other than that I can't find any pattern yet. I have tried with all other applications closed, but that doesn't prevent it from happening so it doesn't seem to be an incompatibility with other open app's. The type of musicfile doesn't seem to be a factor. It happens mainly while cruising through the Remote Buddy-menues. (as a new and impressed user I do that a lot ;-)) What maybe is worth mentioning is that at the same time as the greying out also the volume bars (in all apps like iTunes (both system~ and itunes volume bar), Front Row, QuickTime, VLC, etc.) are 'empty', although the sound is at a normal level. Quit and restart does the job though. Maybe a good idea to add a menu-option 'Quit and Restart Remote Buddy'? 
Great application though, I really really love it!
