MP3 Jukebox 
                
Radioactive Networks has now completed a significant amount of work on
its MP3 Jukebox running the 'Open Source' LINUX Operating System. The
Jukebox includes over 20 GBytes of storage as well as an IR Remote 
Control, Four Line LCD display and Internet access.

Two versions of the MP3 playse software are available :-
  • A version running on the LCD with an IR Remote Control
  • A version running through a WWW browser offering an upgraded 

  • User Interface.
LCD and IR Remote based Jukebox

The code for my original jukebox can be found here . It is written in PERL, 
and is not a great example of my programming. I fully admit that the code is 
a complete hack - it evolved to what it is now. The software relies on the
LCDproc package for display, rxaudio for playback, and LIRC for the remote control. 
 
 

WWW Browser Access

The WWW based version of the Jukebox is based on the goMP package from the
Gautier Taravella mpnet@altern.org.  When we examined this software, we found 
that although it provided a basic user interface, it did not supply the required 
functionality. Features such as advanced play list management were missing. 

The software was also integrated with the XAUDIO toolkit, leading to us 
improving the playlist capability of the software

You may be able to access a demo copy of the software on
http://www.radio-active.net.au/gomp/gomp.html. This copy WILL NOT play, 
but you can get an idea of the playlist support for instance.

NOTE: This software prefers NETSCAPE since it actually implements NPH
far better than MicroSoft.
