eJukebox On Touchscreens
I have seen quite a few pictures of people who have setup eJukebox on touchscreen monitors on these forums. I was just wondering if anyone has any
advice on brands to look at that work well and what type they use. (capacitive, resistive, etc..) Also does anyone know if you can use dual monitors
with touchscreens; one regular and one touchscreen hooked up to the same PC? Thanks

I Have an ELO CRT Touchscreen with a serial interface that works really well. I don't know which type it is but it doesn't have a grid system on the
front. I use it in a dual monitor config with a TV being the other monitor (Which I primarily use for visualizations whil ethe touchscreen runs the EJ
Software) That can Be a little trickier, becasue not all visualizations want to run on the the secondary monitor as their default. (And although I can
MOVE EJ to the second monitor by allowing offscreen placement, I can't get it to STARTUP their. So so much for that. I run a Low res 800x600 so i can
make the icons big enough for fingers. And I increase the font size as an overall windows default.

Personally I think Ejuke has a big of growth to do still before touchscreens work really well with it. Namely bigger buttons in specifc areas.

The dual monitor should not be a problem. A touch screen works by emulating the mouse on the computer. it just means your mouse will move very fast to
the other screen if someone touches it.
Touchscreen wise I installed a microtouch touch screen on a jukebox that I built for a large hotel in the Los Angeles area a couple of months ago. The
screen and eJukebox work great. But I have since had to recalibrate the touch sensitivity after a power outage.
