The requirement to enter a password is frustrating if a Mac is used as a media device, often without a keyboard and mouse.

Is it possible to alter this behaviour via system settings (if so can you please explain what these are I cannot find them) or does this require a change within the app to provide a change in current functionality?

(A similar problem existed with EyeTV until a recent software update by Elgato, I presume therefore that the same may be required of Remote Buddy)

I wouldn't know why Remote Buddy would ever ask you for an 
administrator password (or any password) on application startup / 
application ending. It will only ask you for admin priviledges when 
you want to install, testdrive or uninstall Remote Buddy's driver and 
works fine even with a non-admin account.

If it is really Remote Buddy that is asking you for an admin password, 
then it must be an indirect consequence of how you set up your system. 
The only thing that could cause this that I currently know of would be 
if you have added an admin's keychain to your non-admin user's 
keychain. In that event, OS X will also always search that other 
keychain for entries and - if it finds one - will automatically prompt 
you for the password for that keychain (which - for a login keychain - 
is always the respective password of the account). The solution here 
is to copy the respective Remote Buddy entries from that other 
keychain to the actual login keychain (via drag and drop in Keychain 
Access.app) of the user that you are logged in as and then remove them 
from the foreign login keychain.

Above, however, is nothing that Remote Buddy has any control over. 
Those are OS X keychain automatisms.

I have an iMac setup as a TV in my bedroom and upon first launch or a full restart a password was required to allow the Remote Buddy AJAX Remote keychain item in the Login keychains to be accessed by Remote Buddy.

There are no special items that were setup within the iMac, it has a standard install with the first account as an administrator account, the second account is non administrator which is the default login account. When the iMac reboots it is set to enter this account (TV) and as this has no passwords set should not cause any app that is set to 'Open at Login' any problems.

To confirm Remote Buddy was installed following the installation instructions, again no special configuration has been performed to the app at all, it is running as standard, yet on two computers at home the app has the same keychain in the login items, called Remote 'Buddy AJAX Remote'.

To follow your advice I have moved the Remote Buddy AJAX Remote keychain item from the Login to the System Keychain and this seems to have happily done the trick. :)

It would be useful to know what the item in the Keychain is used for, as you noted previously there should be no need for the keychain but on two macs there is an entry!
