I already do this with an old linux box. You can also watch videos on a real TV rather than a little monitor.
Somebody needs to come out with a good, inexpensive way to interface with it. I have a wireless keyboard with a trackpad, but I don't like it and it was expensive.
- zacharydanger 17y agoTry using one of those Gyration mice. That's what I do anyway.
- rsheridan6 17y agoI thought about that but there are still too many times when I have to do things at the command line like: mplayer -dvd-device Barbie\ Goes \To \The \Beach/barbie.avi -mouse-movements dvdnav:// Which is kind of inconvenient to do with a mouse. Maybe there's a reasonable way to achieve the same goal (in other words, an alternative to mplayer that doesn't suck) with a gui, but I don't know about it. I'd be willing to crouch in front of the TV with a wired keyboard if it was just for occasional admin work.
