On the AJAX remote when using iTunes, Remote buddy always uses its own playlist... but I want to use the main music library so I can have coverflow running.

Telekinisis which is free to use has this by default so you can just browse the main music library with coverflow running.

Is there a fix coming up, or a way of getting RB to always use the main music library?

Thanks

This is not a bug, it's a feature. And the only way to achieve the 
most frequently asked for functionality in iTunes.

If you select a track on the album, you can be sure that Remote Buddy 
will play only the tracks on this album. This is only possible by 
using a playlist of its own. If Remote Buddy would use the main music 
library for this, it would be exposed to a great number of error 
sources, including:

- your sorting settings (as soon as you sort by anything other than 
album, the next playing track will highly likely NOT be from the album 
you selected)

- possibly entered search keywords (limiting the playlist and possible 
omitting tracks, which will then not be played)

Other specialized features, like playing all tracks by an artist are 
impossible to implement without a playlist of its own, either. Same 
goes for enqueing songs. You can enqueue songs in a special playlist 
like the main music library.

Finally, if you want to select tracks from and play them directly in 
your main music library, you'll find that main music library as 
playlist in the Music Library browser.

I understand obviously there are a lot of issues regarding this... Ive managed to play about with the applescript on iphone remote so it selects the playlist i want etc. I even have a button for fullscreen now so no worries.

Out of interest is it possible to modify RB to do it myself? Or is the source for the itunes browser locked?

Thanks
