TuneConnect ReviewGreat app but some problems selecting music - Version: 2.0, 4/24/2008 02:54PM PST

[Benjamin]
As long as I keep the app in "Music-window-mode" it plays the songs sequencially but if I minimize the app it selects tracks (apparently) totally randomly, library-wide. This is the same with the client on 10.4.11 (intel) as on 10.5.2 (intel), so it appears to be a problem with the server/target itunes app. The server is running 10.4.11 (intel) with iTunes 7.6.2.

Request: I would like to be able to select music by artist and album. Sure, it's kinda possble using the search but browse by artist/album is what I want:)

TuneConnect Troubleshooting ReportBroken by most recent iTunes? - Version: 1.1, 12/13/2007 03:47PM PST

I've tried 4 or 5 iTunes remote applications, including the one that I've been running reliably for a while, and they all break with AppleScript errors. My guess is something in iTunes itself changed.

Anyone else seeing this problem?

TuneConnect CommentaryGreat application, definitely the best I've tried - Version: 1.1, 8/18/2007 04:07PM PST

One note, if I can.

The one feature is missing to this application, is the ability to chose the speaker you want to play to (say you have one or more express base station and you want to stream audio to one or the other, or both)

Then it would be really perfect!

Great job!
