Simple question

Set up my mp with aero, took me a week but so worth it

I want to use my iPhone as remote for videos and music, I don't use it for tv at all

What's the best software/app I need to make this happen

Thanks

    I have to agree with the auther;)

    iPiMP is a very good nice, useful plugin.
    And it's not a plugin for the Ipod/Iphone, just a webpage in Safari
    Using it every day...

    And the support is very good.

    iPiMP lets you browse your music playlists and video database and play them on your client. Further music functionality will be added soon.

    If iPimp isn't what you are looking for, you could just set up a VNC server and use any of the iPhone VNC viewer software to control your whole pc.

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
