Thank you! / Krister I am also starting to work on Freevo documentation as a class assignment, so expect to see some work from me as well. The existing documentation is directed more at developers and hackers than end users. I am working on a "user's guide" that focuses 100% on the end user. I may also end up writing some small utilities to make some of the more complex tasks easier, unless 1.5 has made things like IMDB lookup easier. The goal is to make a machine and a small booklet that I could give to my mom and expect that she'd get it figured out without assistance. -b begin:vcard fn:Ben Ford n:Ford;Ben email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] tel;work:509-335-5667 tel;home:509-333-8023 x-mozilla-html:FALSE version:2.1 end:vcard

I just wanted to go with more "friendly" description than just the "TV/Movie/Music/etc." so if you can think of another way to phrase it, that's fine with me. I agree that it should be something more than just "TV/Movies/etc". It is always hard to come up with short phrases that sound good. Right now the main menu looks like: Watch TV (ok) Watch a Movie (Watch Movies ?) Listen to Music (ok) Look at Pictures (View Pictures / View Photos ?) But I'm not a native English speaker so I'd be interested to hear what others think. / Krister --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
