Is there any plans for a jukebox type of interface for PowerHome in future. This would make the CD, Video and IR capabilities complete.

Ive been wanting to put together an interface for the video side of PowerHome. Something where I can browse my DVD collection, click a cover art image and have PowerHome automatically spin the carousel to the proper disc and away I go. PowerHome already does this with CD's, but doesnt include cover art or present an interface like a jukebox.

Do you have a particular piece of software that you currently use that I can use as a model? I havent really played much with any of the jukebox programs so Im not familiar with whats available.

What about using one of the HTPC front ends? Maybe XLobby, MainLobby, Medio/myHTPC, etc.

I just started playing with XLobby, which supports Windows Messaging, but, does not yet implement a TV mode.

Tony has mentioned some interesting examples for a complete HTPC interface. May be something like these will make a nice jukebox interface for PowerHome.

I'll look into some of these shortly. Im in the process of building a HTPC now and will probably want to evaluate some front ends.
