Touchscreen project help

(1/3) > >>

Daddynoob:
Am going to try and make a touchscreen jukebox
The main thing I want to know is what is the simplest way to run the touch screen
Eg using a a old pc or a fire stick or something else
I have a large collection of mp3s which I am putting on to a external hd

Then just want to plug that in somehow

Any ideas please

Daddynoob:
Just thinking
If I plug a usb with music on into a tv it will play the music
So if I do the same principle to a touchscreen device that would also just play without any pc etc BUT how do I add the software so I can do searches and play tracks and have covers on the screen to touch and play and also sort the music on the usb/hard drive

Mike A:
Just use a cheap tablet.

They are already touchscreen enabled and have a bazillion ways to play music.

Get one with a headphone jack and you can plug it into an amp with speakers.

To upload your image here (highly recommended),  look under the box where you edit the text for your post.
- There is an "Attachments and other options " menu link.
- Click on "Browse" and navigate to the photo you want to upload.
- There's a stickied "Not a project" thread in Project Announcements so you can upload the images to that thread then put a link to the uploaded image URL where you want it to appear in your thread. (Attachments appear at the bottom of the thread where you upload them.)

For example, Lomoverde uploaded pictures of his stencil work in this post.  http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,164992.msg1751727.html#msg1751727

If you wanted to show the "stencil2.jpg" image from that post in this thread, you would put the image URL inside IMG tags  ( icon). . .


--- Code: ---[img width=252]http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=164992.0;attach=390050;image[/img]
--- End code ---

. . . and it would show up like this.
- The original image was 504 pixels wide, so "width=252" displays it half-size. (Use "height=" to set the vertical size.)
- Click on the image to see it full size.   ;D
