jukebox that doesn't require windows media player?
« on: August 23, 2010, 10:45:50 am »
I installed tiny xp (or something like that) on a laptop that I'm planning to use as a jukebox.  We played some popcap games using the ELO touchscreen, which was funner than expected.  Now I just need a decent jukebox program.  The thing is that programs like skjukebox won't work because I installed tinyxp without windows media player, any other good options that doesn't rely on media player?

I have a question.  Why install tinyxp if the laptop is going to be a jukebox only?  Playing music isn't cpu intensive at all.

I just received this laptop from my sister and tried to reformat the laptop from the hidden partition.. and messed up while reformatting.  I didn't have any of the backup discs and don't want to be on the phones for an hour or two with dell customer service. I figured I had nothing to loose using tinyxp.
