Wow, this is awesome! Works great with the iTunes remote app on my iPhone. Only glitch was I had to run MusicBee as admin or it gave me an error on startup.
This is awesome. Only Problem is that its sometimes very slow.
can you try with the netsh command as specified in first post?
Now it is perfect! Everything works and is super fast. This plugin should be added to the next release of musicbee :)
Theres one more thing where i dont know if its a bug with retune or youre plugin. When i choose a song from a playlist the first song in the list is played and not the one that i choose.
Reading the monkeytunes link, it mentions that it is commercial software with a limited use trial. Is that the case here?

Mmh, 99% chance it's a bug on my side. I didn't test the playlist part that much. Let me give it a look.

Should be fixed. Please download latest version from first post.
Still doesnt work for me.
I keep getting a 503 error. I've made sure the ports are open and I have bonjour installed, am I missing something?

Yep, uploaded wrong version... please try new link in first post.

The person who developed the MonkeyTunes software released the DACP library (the part not-related to musicmonkey) as open source. He has been kind enough to also reply to my questions during the development of the MusicBee Plugin.
But in this case the software is free of charge. To be honest, most of the challenge was in the DACP library.
try with your firewall completely off.The first thing I did was try it with my firewall off when I got the message and it still didn't work. I get the message after I put the code in to connect to MusicBee. I'm assuming that it might be something to do with the app more than your plugin actually, but I thought I would post here and see what you say first.
At what point you get the 503 error? I guess you're able to pair the device to the MusicBee server?

weird. What client are you using?
Are you able to use Wireshark? It would give me a trace of what happens on the network. Using it is simple: close everything that might use the network (outlook, browsers etc) and start a capture. Save it a find a way to share it with me.
I'm currently using Retune with this plugin. Should I be able to edit the current playback queue? For example, reorder songs in the list?
Retune says it support this with iTunes 11 and MonkeyTunes:
* iTunes 11 Up Next Support. Add songs, albums, artist, genres, composers, and playlists to the Up Next list. Including the ability to view/remove/reorder songs and parts of the Up Next list.
* MonkeyTunes Play Queue support.
I can see the playback queue in Retune, but I can't seem to edit it in any way. Am I just not understanding how to use this feature in Retune, or is it not implemented in the plugin yet? Anyone else tried this?

Any feedback re: inability to search more than 1 word? I'm using the latest version of MB available in the forum, Win7 and iPad 4 with Apple's remote app. Thanks!

sorry for the delay, I was busy these weeks.
I'll look into the matters as soon as I can.
Currently using Telsos android remote exactly what additional functionality does this plugin provide?
Thanks
I have another suggestion.
Could you upload a Version where the use of the Tag "Album-Artist" and "Artist" is switched.
For example if you have a compilation album with different artists the "Album-Artist" is VA or something similar.
If you search for an Artist that is on this album you wont find him cause the search is only lookin for "Album-Artist"
The Text for the playing song is wrong in this case too. Its Song - VA - Compilation. So you cant see whos the real Artist of this Song.
Great cant wait to fix the artist, album-artist bug.
Any feedback re: inability to search more than 1 word? I'm using the latest version of MB available in the forum, Win7 and iPad 4 with Apple's remote app. Thanks!
So I figured it out. In order to search more than one word you have to use "WORD"+"WORD" syntax. I wish I could get rid of the "+" sign but that'll do in the meantime.
This doesn't happen using Retune; what are you using?
Sorry for the late reply.
I put the code on github for everyone to contribute https://github.com/ultimoamore/musicbee-dacp-plugin
Great cant wait to fix the artist, album-artist bug.
Can you send me somehow an album where you see this problem? Thank you
