[QUOTE="MJGraf, post: 87731, member: 17886"] Hello everyone, I just want to share some of my thoughts on this topic because I think this is very interesting here. I could use some kind of web interface for the following scenario: My "perfect" htpc will have a case with a built in touch screen (e.g. silverstone lc18 or dign x15e) and a 720p beamer. When I just listen to music, I could control MP via touchscreen with no need to turn on the beamer. When watching TV the beamer would of course come in handy ;-) The first thought was to use the clone mode of my nvidia card to achieve this. The problem is: none of the built in touch screens can really display a resolution of 1280x720. (I know, the silverstone might emulate this but it's not really nice to look at...). So the next solution could be: primary display = beamer with a resolution of 1280x720. On primary display there should be directX acceleration so the main MP app should have no problem there. Secondary display = touch screen with native resolution with some kind of nice looking and easy to handle control tool for MP. This could be the web interface. For this purpose it would be very helpful if the use of directX isn't as heavy as on the main MP interface beacuse on the secondary display there is no directX acceleration. I've got no idea of all those programming languages you're talking about (last one I really used was C++...). But of course it would be really great if the interface would be resolution independant. In this case one could use the same interface on a touch screen, on my windows mobile pda etc. This would increase the WAF incredibly ;-) But of course the most important thing would be - as already mentioned - a uniform interface in MP through which all remote controlling applications, no matter if it's one application or many different, could access and control MP. Just my two cents... cheers, michael [/QUOTE]
