iTunes Controller Premium

Overview

Let's take control of iTunes on your Stream Deck! Access iTunes (not Apple Music) directly instead of via Multimedia actions. In addition to the Essential edition, the Premium edition has many advanced features and actions:

Now Playing

Displays a large artwork over multiple keys and time display in real time

Various actions on a press or hold key are now available to assign, allowing you to integrate functions into Now Playing

Header layout improvement: Repeat, Shuffle, EQ and Rating indicators, large, legible icons for big display, customizable alignment

A variety of styles and customizable colors and gradients for the progress bar

Volume meter coming up when the sound volume changes

Oblong sizes: 1x2 and 1x3 sizes save space and are easier to assign

Now with dial controller - New in 1.6

Play Song / Playlist / Internet Radio

Play a specific song, playlist or Internet radio whenever you want

Easy to select a song or radio - just select it in iTunes and press the key on your Stream Deck

Volume

Slider styles of volume control

Now with dial controller - New in 1.6

Playlist

Edit playlists: Add or remove songs from the playlist

Rating

Set, toggle or cycle Rating to songs (Not including Love features... iTunes API doesn't allow us to access them)

EQ

Apply a specific EQ preset

Miniplayer mode

Just press a key to toggle the mode

Seek (dial controller only) - New in 1.6

Use the dial or touch panel to seek within the currently playing track

Note to Essential users: Since these Premium actions are incompatible with and separate from the Essential ones, you will need to remove the Essential plugin and set up again using the Premium actions after purchase.

Troubleshooting

Q. Everything's gone but the podcasts in iTunes. Have they discontinued it?! A. Have you installed Apple Music? If so, as Apple Music takes away most of the features from iTunes, you will need to uninstall Apple Music to get them back.

Q. I can't pick up some tracks or playlists for the Play Song or Playlist actions. They are located in a remote library on a device, server, or somewhere outside my PC. A. Unfortunately this is the spec. These actions only support tracks or playlists stored in the local library due to technical issues whereby the ID internally used to specify them changes randomly every time your PC connects to the remote library.

Stream Deck + Support Update

Added Dial actions: Now Playing, Volume, and Seek

Adjusted the radius of the rounded corners on the progress bar to fit the Stream Deck + keys

Feature Improvements

Added some modes for Multi Action to Basics, Volume, Repeat, and Shuffle

Changed the name of Play action to "Basics" and also changed the icon

Now Playing: Improved the Dial-style progress bar so that its tip always moves vertically relative to the direction of progression

Now Playing: Improved the color rendering of the Simple Gradient on the progress bar, expanding the range from 90° to 180°

Now Playing: Added background opacity option for the progress bar

Now Playing: Blurred background now doesn't contain a black margin for oblong artwork

Fixes

Now Playing: Fixed the colon in time displays

Now Playing: Fixed the background blurring process, which had not been working properly
