Comment on Customising iTunes as a Media Server by Matt

Sounds like an interesting product.

Unfortunately we’ve given up on iTunes, not because of problems with the app itself, but our Airport Express kept falling off the network, so the remote speakers almost always didn’t work. That combined with the rubbish drivers for the sound card in the server (M-Audio), meant we had to run iTunes interactively anyway.

Currently we’re using TwonkyMedia Server, mainly for video, with a PS3 as the end point and it’s working great.

Hey Matt

We are just launching a little app that combines running iTunes as a device with the ability to scan for new media in defined Watched Folders, auto update metadata and detect dead links.

You can download a trial at

As this is a new product, would be happy to provide you a free license key in return for some testing feedback? If you are interested then please email me.

Thanks

Should work fine with both types of network connection. I’m not sure of the poll rate, so that might be a consideration if you’re on an expensive cellular data plan.

Thank you so much! I spend so long looking to fix this. It works perfectly and instantly one i got it working! I have been searching all day and nobody else was able to actually give a clear explanation. I’m definitely in debt. Btw, out of curiosity, is this going to work over cellular connection or just wifi?

Unfortunately I’m not sure how to do this on a Mac. The speaker naming is easy, as both platforms use the same resources file. Something for Google I guess…

Hi, thank you for this customising tip for windows. I have an iMac with Mac OS X. Please can you help me to run iTunes as service at this machine as well? I don’t like to log in and start up iTunes, if i like listen music on my Apple TV 2G.

Thank you for help.

Thanks! Helped me significantly. As I also use Google Apps, I had to go into Google Apps setup and enable sync for mobile devices – but that was simple once I realized it wasn’t working. then I just open Calendar on my Touch, and it starts to sync … perfect.

Comment on Browser Plug-ins by Oran Fry

Not to mention the other downside, that browser plug-ins undermine web standards. They’re a quick fix to gain functionality, but make the web less accessible and more proprietary, boo…
