Our development team has been focused on trying to make sure new versions of Democracy Player work exactly as they are supposed to, no more, no less. A big part of doing this is making sure the testing process is thorough and expansive, which is to say that a command-line based front end for Democracy Player is much needed.
A command-line front end is less complicated than the graphical front ends for Windows and Mac. You might be interested in helping us make a command-line front end if you want to see Democracy Player for other OS platforms that don’t take to embedded web browsers, create a more flexible Democracy Player or want to be able to use Democracy Player in the background of your MythTV box.
If you’re interested in making a simple but really important contribution by taking this task on, please email me directly at tyc at pculture dot org. Our development team and I would love to talk more about this.
