Hey guys,
I think the ultimate jukebox would do the following two key things:
1) It would allow full command line integration for use in a frontend, in fact, it'd be REALLY cool if you could use a frontend to build a playlist and then send it to it like so:
mp3juke.exe <song1> <song2> <song3>
2) It could act as a screensaver. So, for example, my arcade cabinet would sit idle for 10 minutes, then the jukebox would automatically kick off and play the playlist I sent it, or even better, select RANDOM songs from paths that I supply the screensaver module. I'd love for my cabinet to play the Pac Man Fever MP3 when the screensaver is activated.
All these standalone jukeboxes are really cool, but the thought of being able to integrate them into my existing frontend or have them automatically come up as a screensaver is what I'd really like to do.
