  2. Re:$500 but this could show "video wallpaper" too by nutznboltz · · Score: 1 · on Build Your Own LCD Picture Frame

    Any small video that did not require sound could be shown using geexbox.

    The parent should read linuxbios.org.

    A less elegant alternative would be to use one of the seveal multimedia oriented linux distributions. Geexbox is about 4 megs and intended to be included in the media containing the multimeida files.

    Granted it takes more than 8 sec to boot but it has 0 cost and can be used on any moderately standard x86 hardware

  4. Windows players... by xybe · · Score: 5, Informative · on MPlayer 1.0Pre1 Is Here

    If you want to see some windows-users' jaws drop, wait until one of them complains he cannot see some movie or the subtitles and show them one of the jukebox-on-a-CD linux distributions based on mplayer.

    They boot, they play. No installing, no fuzz.

    They can play anything mplayer 9x Can.
