Full screen jukbox player recommendations
 
I currently have a MythTV setup installed, and use its mythmusic plugin to play/manage my audio files. The main problem with this is that there is no search functionality so navigating through 10,000 + files can take a very long time when trying to find something specific.

Does anyone have any recommendations on anything similar to the mythmusic plugin that has some search function built into it? I heard there is a XMMS plugin for this, but I havn't been able to find it.


Thanks

Do you want this integrated into MythTV or what? If not, have a look at mpd/ncmpc, it's console-based so is naturally full-screen but is very featureful and a great little program :) Mightn't be what you're after though...

I'm not looking for it to be part of MythTV.

The problem I have with console-based players is the TV makes it almost impossible to read without squinting, and getting a foot away from the TV. So having it run in X Windows is almost a must in this situation.

Ahh k. Well if you wanted to play around, you could setup an alias to run a terminal in X with larger fonts and maximised and run ncmpc in that. It's an option anyway, other than that I don't have any suggestions sorry except maybe running Rhythmbox or amorok and maximise the window?
