As you know, Google TV has been released and it has brought some features to fans such as YouTube Leanback. YouTube Leanback might not be the best feature on Google TV, but with the YouTube Remote app it just might become that.

In order to use this app, you just need to sign in into your YouTube Leanback on TV or PC, and use that same login to sign up on the phone. After that, you just need to select video on your phone and send it to your PC or TV with a press of a single button. As for the YouTube Remote app, it doesn't work as well as expected because several users have reported certain issues such as crashing while running this app. Although this app has its flaws, it works well for arranging queues and for playback on multiple screens.

Although this app has some issues, it generally works well and if you want to try it out, get it from the Android Market.
