It would probably involve skinning the winamp media library somehow, but why do that and have limited jukebox functionality when you could use one of the many jukebox applications listed on here? Is there any reason you specifically want to use winamp? :dunno

Is there anything missing, for touchscreen use? Anything else you guys think I should add?
That looks pretty much useless for touchscreen use. The scroll bars are too small as are the buttons, i don't know if you can alter thoose through skins. But anything you need to click on needs to be a lot larger. Generallly from my experience windows type scroll bars detract greatly from the touchscreen experience due to their design. At least it's all free so you can make your own mind up.

Of course ;D you can change the shape/size/appearance of everything with winamp skins. And maybe I'm a bit more coordinated than you but it's working as-is pretty well on a 10" touchscreen over here ;)
Not so sure it will be fun for your drunken party guest, i would not use that on a 15" screen. Dude i could use it yes i know how a pc works but your average joe doesn't know jack and windows scroll bars are confusing and small buttons are fiddly. They want to scroll down one and it pages down cause they hit the bar. It's up to you dude but i think for touch screen it sucks... Man i think my own software is hard to use on a small screen and the buttons are like 10x the size..
Some of you guys with touch screens jump in it looks like i am trying to get him to use my software which i am not there are loads of others but come on that winamp set up on a 10", it would be awful....

I can only say, Barcrest, you are correct here.
There is a other problem is the close button.... If that button could been hided, it can been in use.
MusicIP seen to been a nice software, so I also send them an email, and see if I can get this to work in MultiJuke.
It could been good to get a playlist from that, based on the last selected song. Maybe the same screme could been use in Freebox?
It just me, is the analyse very slow?

you are wrong. cuz you are. :cheers:

Barcrest you are correct...
Touchscreen software is very touchy. Using Winamp is a bad idea for a jukebox program. It really is... get some special jukebox software instead of trying to customize something that it was never intended for. Freebox by Barcrest is excellent. I use it on the jukebox and it's excellent.
