Wish list?
View

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
I am not sure if this is the place to post a wish list. But if there is going to be a major upgrade, i would like to see a better integration with the cover flow for album arts so we can easily browse the album cover and the songlist when the album art flips over. The only thing that should be different is that instead of palying from the RAM, it controls the iTune on the main computer to play the song files there!

Remote Buddy is using a real playlist within iTunes and just using 
normal playback. It's not "playing tracks from RAM".

By using iTunes for playback (the only option available for DRM/ 
FairPlay protected songs), Remote Buddy is also limited by how iTunes 
works. As it is, iTunes will not automatically jump to the currently 
used playlist. Please file a bug with Apple to request improvements in 
that area:

As sorry as I am, but there's little to nothing I can do about the way 
iTunes behaves. Only Apple can.

Best regards,

Thanks for your reply. i guess i did not make my point clear enough. I wonder if it would be possible to allow browsing the album cover on iTouch just like the cover flow. But instead of playing music from within iTouch/iPhone, it actually controls the iTunes on the main computer?

The AJAX Remote can in fact not control the music stored on your iPod 
Touch / iPhone.

It already - and only - controls iTunes on your Mac.

A CoverFlow 3D display is not possible within the scope of a web 
application (Java and Flash are no options on the iPod Touch / iPhone 
either).

Best regards,

I see! I suppose we have to wait until the SDK is available!

Thanks
