Description

I've started using netTunes to control a machine in another room playing music in my office. It works very well for me, but I find I miss a couple of Synergy features with this configuration:

Play/Pause via hotkey Track change notification

netTunes has rudimentary AppleScript/AppleEvent support (I believe enough to handle these cases, though I haven't actually written any code to be sure)

However, a cleaner solution would be to allow Synergy observe and control a copy of iTunes running on a different machine. In fact, that would (should) give you full-fidelity control over the remote player.
