control apple ipod using android phone

[varunk]

Hi, I purchased the plugplayer for Android on the market. Can some one help me configure how to control the music player on my iPod that is docked to a sound system? Do I need the plugplayer to be installed on my iPod as well? Both iPod and Android are using the same Wireless network. Thank you. Varun

Yes, to use PlugPlayer on Android to control an iPod you will need a UPnP renderer app (like PlugPlayer) running on it. The quick steps are:

1. Install PlugPlayer on the iPod, start it
2. In the device settings for the built-in renderer (press the blue > button), turn on "allow control"
3. Run PlugPlayer on the Android phone, it should discover the iPod automatically.
