I have seen a remote control plugin/program for iTunes somewhere but canīt find it. Please help.

It either is or looked just like the iTunes app but controlled iTunes on another computer and played the tunes on that computer. So no streaming, only remote controlling. Something like iHam and iRye but with the iTunes interface. I remember the FAQ saing something like "It not only looks like iTunes. It IS iTunes", making me think it was "just" a plug in, not a seperate program.

The idea is to have my server standing next to my stereo and have a full control over the iTunes on it from my PB when I need more control than my t68i gives me.

Thanks in advance

Bingo.

It seems like its using a VNC-like server/client solution. Iīm going with the real stuff instead. No fee and more flexible.

But thanks. No I donīt need to try to remember it anymore.
