cheeryble Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Hi I have a little tiny remote which iused to come with the old macbooks. I actually found this amazingly useful, and now with the growth of internet video supply it is becoming more desirable than ever. The phone rings.....I have to stop, get up, walk across the room, turn the sound down, go back to the phone. When the calls over the same again. Yet with my Macbook Air....no remote. Is there an option?.... Thinking aloud guess I could have a remote trackpad, but much easier the old way, volume up volume down, start stop. That's it.

cheeryble Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Yeah and the main reason I need this is when one of the best shows on TV the Daily Show is interrupted by the worst ads on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloFlyer Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Why would you watch the daily show with ads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeryble Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Why would you watch the daily show with ads? Dailyshow.com episodes. Got some godawful stupid girl from MTV with a bloody tiara on telling us how if you want you can succeed at anything she obviously knows the secret of life Actually it doesn't get in the way right now maybe they ain't paying to promote her any more Is there a better alternative fr the Daily Show?

Jimi007 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 If you are using VLC to play your videos, there is an app for iOS called VLC remote. It will work on iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches through your wifi connection. There's a free and a pay version at the App Store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
