iTunes and iPhoto plus Rendezvous

Sunday February 9, 2003 6:48 pm PST by Arnold Kim
As many noted back at MacWorld Expo 2003, Tivo was listed as one of the technologies to incorporate Rendezvous.



Tivo's FAQ reflects this cooperation as well:




    We are currently working with Apple to provide complete integration with future versions of iTunes and iPhoto.


iTunes 4.0 (as it's currently labeled) has been long awaited... with various feature expectations. One feature includes dynamic library sharing which was demonstrated at MacWorld NY 2002.



Based on one rumor, Apple appears to be planning to release the new iTunes in April, along with a seperate app for iPhoto to share your photos with Tivo.

I wonder if they will add dynamic library shring to iPhoto as well. It would be nice to be able to share photo libraries via rendezvous as well.

I suppose a separate App for Tivo capabilities is good, although I'd like it to be in, say, iPhoto 2.1. But then again, not everyone has a Tivo, and even less people would want to share iPhoto photos with it.

And for iTunes 4.......:)

Only one question. What color will the music note be? We've had blue with version 2, we've had this pink/purple thing with version 3. What color will version 4 bring?

It'll be nice when we see the true potential with Rendezvous. Right now, it's kinda behind the scenes, but when it's out in full force, it'll make every other comany's digital hub look like an old-school telephone switchboard...

Of course, Rendezvous is available for anybody to embed in their apps or hardware, so I wouldn't be surprised to see windows apps coming out that are available to take advantage of it. It'll certainly help fend off microsoft, who will eventually say that rendezvous is bad, and make their own no-config, auto detecting networking technology, or whatever Rendezvous is...

I'm thinking for the full color spectrum, the only color we haven't seen in any iApp (that I'm aware of) is green...

Yeah, green is basically absent. There is a bit of green in iDVD, but not really. Maybe we'll see more than one color like in the original version.

Dynamic library sharing is great and I'm looking forward to it but my most wanted feature would be real AAC support beyond what we got today with iTunes 3. I would like AAC encoding, visual effects, tags, etc.
