Post subject: | Kiosk setup help |
I have a customer who owns a CD store. He wants a system where he can put a CD in a CD player behind the counter and have a listening post with controls elsewhere in his shop. My idea was to set up a KnoppMyth box with a touchscreen and headphone jack on the wall. My questions are: Is there a way of locking the system so it boots straight to the CD player GUI? Does KnoppMyth support touchscreens? Is there a way of making the CD player controls work with the mouse (and therefore a touchscreen)? Thanks Edit: I am also testing KnoppMyth on a VirtualPC 2007 VM, and can't get the sound to work. Any tips? |

Touch screen support for mythtv was added 0.20, no idea how you set it up though. In virtual PC 2004 you had to run alsaconf to setup the sound, i guess its similar in 2007. |

You can edit the XML menus at least to only have one choice. Stored in /usr/share/mythtv Either edit directly or place copies in MythTV's home directory, I think in .mythtv. |

Right tool for the right job. KnoppMyth is overkill. Why not look into something specifically for playing MP3s? Something like this. |
