I have . no idea what the remote is. I am lucky to have two MB Pros so I use one to control the one with the music and MC26 on it. The amount of times I asked Apple about remotes and they never once thought to tell me about screen share. I found it for myself. However, before I found screen share,being disabled, it meant I rarely was able to listen to more than 1 cd because I could not keep getting up to change it. Now I just do it from my laptop.
I assume your remote is a much cheaper option!
