[QUOTE="buddy3000, post: 426701, member: 92280"] I too have this dilema. When building my new HTPC I origianally was looking into the cases with the 7" touch screen, I thought it would be cool. But then I ran across the case with the 12" screen and it made me think, how much more useful the bigger screen would be. Then I had a ligh bulb moment and though, why does the touchscreen have to be attached to the PC at all. I ended up with a 15" touchscreen and HTPC case for less then half of what the 7" touchscreen cases were running for. But I digress, I too would like the MP interface to run on the touchscreen while the output screens would run on the HDTV (I have HDMI output from my HTPC). I tried the touchscreen plugin and it displays a music screen on my HDTV but it was designed for the 7" screens so it looks like it was made for a blind man on a 60" screen. I haven't set up videos yet, but I can't help but wonder if I have the video player defaulted to the second screen, it should open automatically there when playing videos. Right now I would like to display Song info on the big screen like it does with the touchscreen plugin. [/QUOTE]
