BitRemoteI am pleased to communicate to all J River users that xpTunes has now become BitRemote.
I decided to join forces with DigiBit, www.digibit.es a company specialised in digital music solutions to commercialize worldwide the iPhone/iTouch remote solution. From now on you can freely test the application and buy the solution in www.bitremote.com , together with BitRemote you get for free web interface BitWeb (fka BlackZone) that allows you to control MC from any PC in the network. Usage:
remote control JR Media Center through your touchscreen / Pda / iPhone / iPod touch / mobile Phone /... you only need a webbrowser (>IE7, Safari, FF,Chrome,..).

recommendations:- use a fixed ip address or your pc name (like

hints:- you can start xpTunes minimized -> "xpTunes.exe -min"
- you can use xpTouch on your G1 phone too
faq:What are the limitations of a free version?
The only limitation is that the free version only shows 20 tracks.
How one can change number of items displayed per page (pages albums, artists, titles, etc)?
just open the .html file and change "showmaxitems=" to a greater number.
