I have my Car PC in the house for a few days re-installing some new stuff on it. I have started creating a new skin for the front Road Runner that I use.
Doing this, with the GUI skin builder, I got to thingking this would be a great way to custom design Home AUtomation screens. Not only that, Road Runner has built in mp3, Video, slide show controllers, can control numberous TV and FM tuner cards and a lot more. It also has all of the hooks built in to pass information back and forth with Girder, so talking to Home Seer or other HA programs would be fairly easy. Road Runner also is capable of dual monitor support. Did I mention that the program and the GUI skinning program are 100% FREE!
It can handle resolutions up to and BEYOND 1080i & 1080p.
I have my HA screens pretty set up the way I want, and am not going to start rewriting everything anytime in the near future. For those looking to build a nice HA interface, this may be the sollution.
Have a look and see what you think: Here's the Link to the Road Runner Forum.
