Hi!

I'm working on a small computer that I will be using as a music player for my (admittedly crappy) home stereo setup.

Since it's a fairly old computer, I think that DSL would be great for helping it run fast.

My question is, is there a program I can get that would allow me to control the music player from a webpage interface? Kind of like WAWI for Winamp? (http://www.flippet.org/wawi/) I think there's one for XMMS, but I've had no success getting it to work on any Linux distro.

I use DSL, SLAX, and Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. Sometimes XP, and hopefully NEVER Vista.

No idea, but wouldn't a remote controller be better?
A serial port infrared receiver + any remote = control :D

A quick google showed xmms-control, a PHP page for controlling xmms through xmms-shell. You would need Apache, php, and xmms-shell to use it.

Yeah, xmms-control, that's what it was called. I never could get it to work. Which is strange, considering I've never had trouble getting php webpages to work on my apache setup.

And btw, thanks for responding so quickly.
