Asking for Control Panel (buttons) suggestions / ideas

<< < (2/2)

jp:
total cabinet is stil abit of a mess (need to create something
new) it's an old 19" cabinet
regarding select : use wincab in autoselect (1letter and 1number makes selection)
i use it in my home-bar(usualy at party's)
and let the guests select the songs ,so i don't want a clear button because if someone selects a song i suppose he/she wants to have it played (set maxque to 5 after first party,at the end of the party it stil had 8 hours of music selected)

Also look at the roll-down mech right below that button.  Much smaller than a coin door and you can get them brand-new on eBay for 8 to 10 dollars US.

Groovy Game Gear has a coin drop button as well: http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=295&zenid=547e0830608bc831fca42416e4ec3f84

I like the looks of the Mech on the bottom, might be fun to add to the Juke.  hmmmmmmm, $8 - $10, I'll have to check it out.

Thanks for the tip!

I'd still like to see some pictures, although I'm getting a much better idea of what I think I'd like to do.

Post Your PICs!  Show us what you did.

That would be cool, but I planned to take a simpler / less expensive / smaller footprint route.  I saw a square lit button that looked like a coin slot, so all they have to do is press the button.  I like your idea though.

I'm trying to get some good ideas for planning the "push buttons" (letters / numbers.
Looks like the default WinCab skin takes 4 letters & 4 numbers. I was also going to install left / right arrows and select / clear buttons on the CP. The power button and Esc would be hidden.

I had another thought too.  Can I create a second WinCab.exe (called WinCab2(?)) that I could set different config settings, so I could config as albums and utilize a different skin and button config?  (all numbers?)

I would really appreciate seeing pictures of other people's Juke Control Panels.  PLEASE post 'em!

Hi MPTech,
Although not what you were requesting, I've have my jukebox controlled completely by mouse. Not traditional but very easy for friends to use.
I've included pics. Exit button is a control on the skin with pics and is removable for big parties. I have "lights" (images) for Popular List, Paused and Auto Play states. The skin was designed and created in Paintshop Pro and is available if anyone is interested. I have about 6 original skins and will post in a seperate topic soon.
I'm posting here because you were asking for ideas... not buttons but an alternative..
Cheers
Nigel
Keyboard is hidden inside for config etc. The jukebox has a wireless network card for transfering new albums.
