I was wondering if anyone knows of a good Winamp plugin to make Winamp fullscreen.

Is that hard to make if there aren't any around?

Basically, I'd like to make or have a nice full screen GUI for playing audio files. I've backed up alot of my CD's to MP3 on my file server, and play them via my lan. Anyway, since I have an ATi AIW card, I have the remote I can use as a mouse. So I'd like to have the ability to be able to see all the info from across the room and use the remote to change songs, etc...

Only thing is, I cna't find much. I did find one plugin on Winamps site, but its designed for TV use (640x480). I usually run at 1024 or 1280. So that wouldn't be full screen...

Anyway...are there other programs that'd do this?

Also, I'm considering the possibility of one day putting a 5" LCD in the car with a smal computer with removable drive. That'd let me take the music in that car that way, and I could use the LCD as an interface...so full screen would be nice there. (So would touchscreen I suppose...)

Have you tried Sonique (http://sonique.lycos.com/) ?
It doesn't stream audio as well as winamp, but if you're playing MP3's off of your HDD, it sounds the same. It's skinable, and has a bunch of downloadable vis plugins. Oh yeah, it'll go full screen in visual mode, in what ever res you want to run it in.
