Nice looking box. I'm in the planning stage of jukebox 2.0 and looking for software. Definitely gonna check out TouchJams. I was thinking about giving up on dual monitors, but I like the way the software looks in your setup, which is similar to my plans.

How are you attaching your monitor(s)? My previous build was a rack mount CRT, but it's looking like this one will have to use an ELO 17" touch screen with the stand alone casing. Did you de-case your monitor? It appears to be a stand alone, at least from the front, but I can't see how it is staying put.

Nice build. I am looking for ideas for my jukebox which I will eventually get to.  Might be a dumb question but what do you have displayed on the top monitor? Videos? Thanks for sharing!

I have it to display the videos when playing music videos or the videos for when a karaoke song is on. I also have it to display the "playing now" screen while I'm selecting new tracks. TouchJams has different setting for what you want to to do with the 1st and 2nd monitor. I believe you can also have to display pictures that you might have in a folder.I would recomend you going to Touchjams.com and download their full demo for free, you'll like it. Thanks

Sorry for the late response, but the top screen was mounted on very tightly from the cutout, then i applied little bit of epoxy through the inside( not the best way to hold, but hasnt fallen out yet,lol) , the bottom screen i used a couple of long screws with large washers that attach to the lcd from the back. The screen has no back cover. (check the pics)...
