As Calum already stated: iPeng 0.5.3 is a plugin for SC that will
provide a web interface for Mobile Safari.
It's older than the App, much slower and has a bit different
functionality.
The only thing it gives you when used with the iPeng App is a few
customized strings in the interface.

Not with the App, this currently is a pure remote control.
However, this is the one thing that the iPeng _plugin_ would probably
give you. It doesn't have support for streaming either, but it can play
back songs form your SC library. Only works for .mp3 and .aac files and
it's kind of a kludge. You have to disable your iPhone's screen saver
and you will not be able to manually skip to another track without
going back to the playlist and things like that - the QuickTime
interface in Safari is really limited.
You can read about how it works here:

And to install it with a recent (>7.3.0) version of SC just use (in SC)
Settings->Advanced->Extension downloader.

Yes. Technically the SBC has two different applications on it, one is
the control application and one is the player. They work independent of
each other so you can use your controller to control your Receiver while
you use iPeng to control the controller :-)

It will be a free update.
