I have a 9k as an audio master and a bs3 as a video master; i have a beoport which I'll connect to the mini; I also have a BL3500 in a link room as well as a BC2 with BL3s in another link room

How can I connect all of these things with the mac?

I'm sure I'll need Anders program. . . will that give me control of N.Music and N.Radio in Link rooms?  via Beo4 or the iTunes Remote app?

Also, will the BC2 display the information of the Artist, etc.?

Lastly, I"m also getting an Apple TV which I'll use as a V.Mem2 or some other source I presume. .

Any thoughts??

Yes, you are correct in everything you've said. Just whack the BeoPort into one of the USBs on your MacMini, install Anders' software and you can control iTunes with your Beo4 from anywhere in the link system.

If you want to take things a step further, you can get an iPod Touch or iPhone and use Apple's Remote app (get it through the iTunes Store) to control iTunes via WiFi. The BeoCenter 2 or BeoLab 3500 will still display artist information!

I actually got a "free" iPod Touch when I bought the mac mini.  I plan to use that remote function. . .

Will keep you posted

They just arrived via FedEx so hopefully can hook them up tonight. . . 

You'll need an audio cable running from the Mac Mini to your TV.

But why don't you use the DVI option as well. Feed the DVI cable also in the TV and you can control iTunes on screen.

I've this setup and DVDpedia software for watching stored DVD's. 

Tell me more about this DVDPedia software. . .

I'm intrigued and would like to know more about it. . .

Any place I can download it?? 

Google is your friend.......

And the search function here is quite fancy, too.
