    <pre wrap="">Steve, have you tried installing Amarok onto a Knoppmyth 
installation? I know it's reliant on KDE so it would 
require a lot of KDE libraries and suchlike but is it possible?

I just looked at yammi (I've seen amarok before) - none of these things are
really designed to be driven with a remote control.  The best idea I've had
is to have a small separate computer with a touch screen or mouse to do the
queueing of songs (have you seen a video jukebox at a pub?  They're about
the best interface for that kind of thing I've seen), and mfd/mfe should let
you do that by creating a playlist, which you could even do with iTunes
perhaps.

Is there a good non-Myth, remote control only, music player?  Desktops and
TVs are very different creatures.

Hm, going with that idea, I'd say you could have a PDA type (web)
application and use that to select songs/playlists on a wireless
network. That's probably the smallest kind of computer you can have, eh
:).<br>
