Gum Under The Seat - Menuing system for the Mac, designed to be driven by a remote control
Gum Under The Seat is a menuing system for the Mac, designed to be driven by a remote control.Modules are included for videos, iTunes, a Scripts folder, EyeTV, and Vonage dialing.

Since the GUI just presents lists, anything that can be presented as a list could possibly be controlled. So far, modules have been written for:
  • videos
  • iTunes
  • EyeTV channels
  • EyeTV recordings
  • Vonage dialer for Address Book entries
  • Scripts directory

    Other ideas:
  • iChat buddies list with Video or audio invite
  • X10 control
  • Web bookmarks

    Requirements:

  • NicePlayer (to play videos or VIDEO_TS directories)
  • Xine Plugin for NicePlayer (to play files that Quicktime doesn't understand)

    Nice to haves:
  • If you want to watch TV, get an EyeTV
  • If you want to use a remote, get a KeySpan Express Remote or similar.
  • If you want to dial the phone from your address book, get a Vonage account
