iOS Remote app doesn't show all music

Hello everyone. I have an interesting issue. I have iPhone 5S & iPad Air & rMBP Early'13. I always listen music at home with my macbook included itunes match and i always use ipad and iphone remote app. I think its very useful. All units have latest version of their os (8.4 & 10.10.4)

Yesterday I realise ios remote app doesn't show my all music. Still, it shows just only downloaded music. I can see and stream my all music in my macbook itunes but both remote app (ipad&iphone) doesnt show these. When I play not-downloaded song in my macbook, remote app shows now playing song but I never see another songs or albums. I can see genres but these seems empty 😟 I didnt update anything before that and I tried reinstall app and reconnect but problem is still here.

Do you have same issue and any idea solve this?

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4

Same Issue.

I'm using iTunes Match. From my PC with latest iTunes installed I can see and play all my music.

The remote app (Run on iPhone 6) doesn't display my music collection (it only displays whats actually been downloaded to my PC). I can however select playlists from the remote app and these will play.

Country Code is whatever it would be for the USA.

I think it is related to the streaming function of Apple Music/iTunes Match. Remote App must only be recognizing traditional (stored on hard drive) music in iTunes on the system (Mac/PC) it's connecting too, rather than the stream-able library. I'd guess remote app is querying the actual file location, and thus only pulling up stuff on the hard drive.

But actually the fact that from remote app I can play playlists made up of only stream-able music, indicates that's not the case. So, I'm unsure. But it means it shouldn't be too much of a leap to resolve.

Same issue with Sonos at this time for me with stream-able collection from iTunes not wanting to dance.
