The AJAX Remote – served by an embedded webserver built into Remote Buddy – allows you to use your iPhone and iPod Touch as an interactive highend remote control with focus on mediacenters and presentations.

Using AJAX Remote, almost all aspects of iTunes can now be conveniently controlled via the touchscreen. Albums, artists and particular songs can be tracked down (no pun intended) with the integrated live search or located via the built-in music library browser. From there, they can be played back directly or enqueued in the current playlist. Support for switching between speakers connected through AirPort Express as well as changing the repeat and shuffle modes, volume and track position has also been added. Playback controls and the ability to change the rating of a song are also provided.

Presenters are supported by the AJAX Remote’s Presenter Trackpad. With the touch of their finger, users switch between the live view of their displays, reposition the mousepointer or toggle the Mousespot functionality, that softly highlights the current position of the mouse pointer.

EyeTV users can change channels or start playback of their recordings on the iPhone or iPod Touch using Remote Buddy’s AJAX Remote. All recordings are presented with thumbnail and meta information.

The AJAX Remote’s camera module provides users with a live view of their iSight® and also allows taking snapshots with it.

Other features include a virtual keyboard, full Remote Buddy menu access, a virtual remote control for 90+ applications and system functions and a VIDEO_TS launcher for VLC and DVD Player complete with displaying cover art.
