Recommendations needed for MP3 jukebox w/ limited controls
« on: October 31, 2014, 02:12:54 pm »
What jukebox software would you recommend for limited controls?  It has a joystick and 6 buttons acting as a gamepad (Xin-Mo dual interface).  This project is mainly just a proof-of-concept to see how well something like this would work out, consisting mostly of used parts (including the CP interface).

Currently, I've got DWJukebox running on WinXP.  I'd like to use an album-list-type skin, but the only skin that seems to have volume up/down is the classic/default skin.  I would really rather not spend countless hours learning how to make a skin if there's a better option out there.  I've been trying other software, but keep running into problems getting them to start up.

There is still lots to do, but this was a quick build just to see how well it would work.  New acrylic, feet/casters, front panel replaced with slide-out drawers for CDs/DVDs/Blu-Ray/and whatever comes next, etc.

Personally I think you should go touchscreen. Anything else will seem cumbersome and out dated.

I recommend "SKJUKEBOX"    I have it working on 2 jukeboxes with a simple number pad that recofigerable via the software.
