Looking for a Video Jukebox Software Program...
« on: June 16, 2019, 02:55:35 pm »
  :dunno Does anyone know of a good Video Jukebox program?  I am not interested in a Juke box that connects to the internet but it will just load and play the music videos I have on my hard drive.  The current jukebox software I got will only play the video in a small screen in the lower right hand corner.  A full or near full screen is preferably better.  The one I am using now is   Retro Jukebox   http://www.arcademy.fr/retro-jukebox.html
Happy Father’s Day everyone!  :cheers:

I run Media Player Classic and set it to full screen, shuffle. I’d love a more robust, yet simple option as well.

You see this is going into my game cab.  And I already have a jukebox program for music. I just want something that will play full screen video yet the front end looks like a jukebox .....

Jukebox Arcade v1.3.7 is a good one for Windows XP/7 (designed to work on MAME machines, plays videos full screen & is free)

Very interesting. It has some thing I like and there are some things I don’t like.  As for KODI. doesn’t KODI need to be hooked up to the internet to work?. My game cab will NOT. Be on the internet

I would try Freebox Jukebox (aka Etouch)

I have been a lifetime member for over a decade and the support and updates are the best for any jukebox software available. Plus there is a lot of members that design skins for it.

At my parties I tried using a jukebox program. Nobody ever selected any songs. I run just VLC player now with a huge playlist. It plays a few music videos, then it plays 2 or 3 80's commercials, then it plays an MTV bumper, and then back to music videos. I re-randomize the playlist when I manage to plow through it.

They have terrible support though. They lock you down to the MAC address on your computer mobo, the hard drive serial#, and OS. Any of those 3 changes and you need to contact support which can take 2 weeks or more.

Have you looked at Album Player ?
I have it on my touchscreen jukebox, you could set it up as video only and set it to play full screen.
I have been using it for last 3 years and love it, you can also set up radio if wanted but it can be a little hit n miss with the radio streams. It's cheap too.
