That's it, my friend has done a first conclusive test on his system, so I can now post the link to the Beta Let me know if you need help configuring it to your system.

Then, there is the revamped Preferences windows. (So that you know, LinkPlayer 2 stores its settings in a different place, so make sure you reconfigure it completely and re-start it before using it.) The "General" pane now shows all the different devices in the system, you change the settings for all of them, and a little LED will tell you

I'll now be posting in this new thread .

Secondly is the much improved and logical way of handling changes between Full Screen and the Virtual Remote. Sources that are started by a AUDIO key (CD, RADIO, A.AUX, N.MUSIC, N.RADIO) do not go full screen. Sources that are started by a VIDEO key (TV, DTV, V.TAPE, V.AUX, PC) go full screen.

There has been some changes to the internal player. It has "less gap" but I haven't test if it was totally gapless as I do not have gapless albums to test.

You'll still be able to play music stored into your iTunes Library as before, but it will not launch iTunes, the music will be played by LinkPlayer's internal music player. This is to reduce dependencies on Apple's implementation of iTunes. Everytime they release a new version, it makes LinkPlayer or BM-Link fail. Also LinkPlayer 2 new architecture

One more precision about the icon... it will turn into a mini display when the virtual remote window is closed. Looks cool. I am currently working on ironing the most obvious bugs, hoping to release the first Beta version here by the end of the weekend. To avoid dissapointment I need to stress that this is far from being the final version. It will not
