Hey Guys,
I'm having 9" monitors put in the headrests of my 2003 Range Rover. I've been trying to figure out the best way to keep this both organized and easy to navigate with 100+ movies in avi format. I used to use XMBC on my moedded Xbox years and years ago.
From what I've seen, there are some really nice skins and great integration with IMDB to make organization a breeze. Could anyone recommend a good setup to get XMBC up and running, a way to get the movies all organized, and easy access via a great GUI for a small screen.
Lastly, what hardware would you recommend using? I was thinking about buying an EEE PC and putting it in the trunk and using a Logitech Di-Novo Edge keyboard/mouse. I will also need to use the computer for M$ Word and Excel while traveling so I can't run a Linux build of XMBC, it will need to be running within W7.
Any and all recommendations, advice, or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Mike
