Audio-only/headless mode?
#1
Hi everyone,

I just downloaded a copy of xbmc and playing with it for the first time today.

I have a question: is it possible to run xbmc in headless mode or with a very small secondary screen?

To elaborate:
I'm setting up an HTPC. Among other things I want to use it to listen to my music. But I don't want to have to turn on the TV just for that.
I was thinking of installing a secondary screen into an available 5.25" bay - this way I would be able to get some feedback from xbmc -- but the question is, does it support something like that? Or would I need to write my own plugin/extension/etc.?

Thanks in advance

We support character lcd/vfd through lcdproc. You can use the web interface to choose tracks/build playlists.
