Hello Forum,
I,ve been searching on the forum and through by back issues with no luck trying to find details of a post some time ago [up to 12mts] from a guy building a PC used solely for playing mp3s, he was tring to rum it without a monitor just a numeric display. I'm considering something similar and this postee had some good links to some excellent sites,
Can anyone help out??
Thanx a mill in anticipation

J8hn, Will you be running the jukebox off a network or will it be standalone?
If its networked you can use a copy of WinVNC to remote control the jukebox. This is the method I use, the PC is an old slimline desktop hidden behind the stereo stand with just a power cable going into it.
If not, then there are several companies producing LCD displays that also interface to WinAMP to display the track and artist etc. Some have controls some dont.
