Hi uptown47,
No, I never released the public beta, as I encountered some limitations in the programming language which was a show stopper.
The good news though, is that I haven't given up, I'm in the process of porting over the code base to a different language (one which will allow me to run a native Android/iPhone 'control panel' app to manage song selection/addition), so it's still alive, just VERY behind schedule! :)

Great to hear it's still alive and kicking. What are you writing it in? If you need an alpha tester then I'm your man.
Excited to hear you're planning a mobile app too. I've been researching some current offerings like Touch Jams and Videobox etc. None of them really tick all the boxes for what I would want.
Are you full steam ahead on the project now or are you still trying to pick up the pieces?

I've opted to port the code base to Flutter, as it gives me a stable foundation for the multi-platform features I'd like to (eventually) add, while also solving some of the performance requirement issues.
I'm still resolving the multitude of re-base issues, but progress is being made... :)
Ultimately, what I always wanted is a video jukebox that supports various multi-screen configurations (with touch support thrown in), with nice 'eye-candy' animation (ie, page flips for track cards, loading & unloading a 'platter' from the virtual record player, etc.), but it's evolved to also wanting to be able to have a 'DJ' mode - whereby I can use a mobile app to add/reorder/remove items to/from the playlist (and also have non-admins view the upcoming playlist / add tracks), and possibly add karaoke support in the dim distant future.
Obviously, not everyone will want/need the same things I do, so I'm focusing on getting the core functionality operational and stable as the priority for the moment, but also keeping in mind the changes to enable the additional features I envisage, so it's ready to bolt those things on down the track (pun intended!) ;D
