MusicServer - Two Projects (Last update Dec 28, 2006)

by **PhilB** on Sun Feb 19, 2006 4:22 am

MusicServer 5.4 - Home automation skin that provides digital and internet multi-zone audio, DVD, weather, X-10 and unit conversions. Loosely based on the LCARS display seen on some Start Trek episodes. I am no trekkie but I do like the graphics.

MusicServer-Mini - Standalone antique radio project based on a 1940's Philco wooden radio housing with a touchscreen interface. Skin provides MP3, Internet Radio and weather. Just wanted to see if I could do it. Thanks for the original idea to rembetis and to rika for some retro skin inspiration.

Please feel free to visit the websites for these two projects listed below.

Positive comments or questions are welcome.

Any thought of distributing this skin? Many have started a LCARs skin, but it would appear that your one of the first to actually fully impliment it. Check these posts below:

I will post it if you or others want a copy. Aspects of it are customized specifically for my hardware but there are some interesting elements to it. The graphics could be better, but they do the job.
