Looks very nice and "bling-bling" indeed. :) However, I fear that this
sort of interface would *require* openGL (i.e. proprietary Nvidia or
Ati/AMD driver). Which would also mean a complete rewrite of Freevo I
think.

And last but not least: my TV-out (via the utility 'nvtv') does not
work well in combination w/ the proprietary Nvidia driver. Therefore
I, for one, like the fact that Freevo is 'bling-bling less' (without
GL that is).

I don't know how TV out is w/ newer Nvidia cards and the proprietary
driver compared to my GeForce2MX (Ati, I think, will never have proper
*overscanned* tvout for Linux), maybe switching from PC-monitor to
TV-out works fine, but until that day I prefer a GL-less interface for
my Mediacenter. :)
