Product Description:

X-Tunes is a free utility to to control iTunes without bringing iTunes to the foreground, or having the iTunes window on screen.

Contrary to iTunes or other controllers, X-Tunes does not display a window permanently on screen, but only when you press a given key combination (Apple+Space by default). This window appears in front of all applications so you can click on its buttons while remaining in the current application. As soon as you release the key combination, the window disappears smoothly.

X-Tunes not getting along with cursor - Version: 1.2.6, 4/29/2006 07:48PM PST

I'm running 10.3.9 on a PowerBook G4. When I activate the X-Tunes interface my cursor does not move correctly. I also have to release my key combination (mine is alt+space) in order for the control I click to work. Help Pol!

Oh, Pol, I tried to send you an e-mail, but is bounced back.

X-Tunes still strong and working (could use an update though) - Version: 1.2.6, 1/26/2006 11:05AM PST

X-Tunes still works fine, but the peops at apple defaulted spotlight to activate with cmd+space... so you just need to redifine spot light to something else. The thing that -is- broken in X-Tunes is the ability to change its keyboard shortcut to anything other than the aforementioned keyboard shortcut.
But with that small adjustment... still works great in 10.4.4.
