There have only been a few updates the last few weeks. Mainly related to updates for AppleTV. And this past week has been particularly hectic. A lack of updates doesn't mean that there hasn't been any progress though. People following the Twitter-feed have already seen some mention of a new playback engine for the emulator. I've made a few screenshots of the current progress:


Playback controls when playing music


Playback controls when playing video

In the first screenshot you'll see basic playback controls that I'm implementing right now. These will allow you to more easily test code that listens for track-changes for example, and testing of certain playlist features.

The second I think is perhaps even more interesting since it shows the work that's being done now on a full video engine in the emulator, which will be used to create support for iTunes Extras soon, allowing me to finally finish that tutorial.
