Amarok Remote V1.4 (Freeware)
Requirements: Android
Overview: Remotely control your desktop Amarok player from any Android 0.9 SDK device.
Amarok can easily be controlled via DCOP, including fetching currently playing information and album art. DCOP is a local, safe IPC architecture that usually comes already enabled with KDE applications. Just a reminder that DCOP is being phased out in KDE 4 with D-Bus taking its place. Speaking of the D-Bus future, there is an awesome standard called Media Player Remote Interface Specification (MPRIS) that is being put together by the folks at XMMS, VLC, Amarok, and others. It doesn’t seem to be in stable releases yet, but will be soon. Back to the present, I’m going to just focus on getting Amarok 1.4 working with older DCOP calls.
