It's free and offers a lot, you can't ask for more. One little glitch that I like to solved is: remembering last position while scrolling through playlists.

One of the things that made me decide to purchase the software. Very convenient as a remote. The not so good parts: no ability to rate songs from within the app (must be a glitch, doesn't save if you click on the stars) ; interface is frankly a bit wonky and cheapish feeling, which is okay, but for example, when searching you can't go back one step without going back to the beginning of search. Can't see which tracks the program found without actually pressing play. Small things like that.

Too old and can't work well with modern full screen gesture setup. Seems to not show any now playing status. But other than that. Works still

Gizmo could be helpful if you are using JRiver and don't have the computer right in front of you. It will control the software from a phone or tablet. However, it lacks key usability features for music. First, there's no way to reorder, edit, or delete the current play queue, other than adding another album. (Well, you can press "Play" on another track, which will replace the entire queue.) This is a pretty basic feature, and it's surprising to find it missing. The Search feature is really fast, but there's no way to view the tracks on an album and add *some* of them to the playe queue. Update in June 2016: Still no way to reorder play queue or add individual tracks from an album. It's puzzling how such basic features are missing -- I guess this is really meant just for controlling movies.

Confusing to use for rendering audio from your pc. constant "communication errors", requiring me to open the phone and hit play after every single song. very annoying.
