HDX and iPhone

Posted by: gone on 17 May 2009

I heard from a (probably unreliable) source that it will 'soon' be possible to control an HDX from an iPod/iPhone. This would be a very nice feature except for the fact that Apple doesn't support Flash.
I suppose this could mean that:-

a) the new firmware for HDX will have a non-Flash user interface,
b) Adobe and Apple have kissed and made up, and the next iPhone firmware will support Flash, or
c) it's all bollocks

I'm not sure which is more likely.
Your votes please
Cheers
John

NaimNet systems are now able to be controlled via the iLinX application for iPhone and iPod touch, but this is instigated from the destination room amplifiers, and applies only to network streamed audio, not the local outputs.

I have and am using this app right now, and it works a treat within the context of a full NaimNet distributed audio system–I can view my sleeping son upstairs in the nursery from the comfort of my lounge chair downstairs.

Thanks David
I'm not sure I understood much of that, but I guess that means iLinx will not control an HDX?

Does that include Smell-O-Vision?

It will, but only if you have NaimNet room amps.

Hi all,
I'm new on this forum- looking forward for good postings :-)

Naim will soon announce new speaker/s and some DACs...but the controlling option for HDX with ipod would be cool...the LINN folks buy in appstore the SW for their DS....could Naim do same?

Just an add on...today,i had the chance to listen to a full blown Linn config: LP 12 SE/Radikal/Urika/Klimax Pre/Klimax Power and DS and ipod touch for control!
My intention was rather to check how ipod controls DS but the dealer plays some music..
Naimes... if you have ever the chance to listen such a combi...take it! That is all i can say...
(and sorry for my bad english;-))

Similar iPod touch control may be had of NaimUniti via DLNA-compatible control points (such as PlugPlayer).

How did the iPod touch do next track on the LP12? Smile
