    I'm looking for a program for Windows (XP) that will allow me to browse offline video files in a coverflow type view, and launch files from the cover art.

    The Cooliris browser plugin is close.. I am able to load in cover art and display it in an attractive GUI, but I am unable to launch the associated video file from within that view. The closest I can get is opening the containing folder.


    Is there anything else that I could use to make this work? I just want to launch the video file associated with the cover art.

    I talked to the Cooliris guys and they said they're currently working on this feature and I should expect it some time this year..


    Apparently I just need to upgrade to Windows 7 and start using media center.. Although I was looking to keep this socket 478 machine on XP.. damnit... I need some new components.
