I noticed some plans in the Google 'Summer of Code' competition, to overhaul the MythMusic interface. I agree, it's pretty awkward in comparison to using a Squeezebox (http://www.slimdevices.com) or an iPod. And it doesn't have internet streams built in, it doesn't synch music streams through your house, etc etc.

Now, I'm not a C coder, but I would've thought it shouldn't be too hard to have a dig through one of the open source Slim players, and build a Myth module to replace MythMusic, that acts as a Slim player - just with a bigger screen and visuals.

Any thoughts?

G'day,

I would assume so, just take your fav player and do something the same as xine does when you play a dvd.

Not that I really want all the flash graphics. I assume you can run the java softsqueeze if you just wanted simplicity.

You would need to do something with the remote, that might be hard with softsqueeze.
