Software solution for gLCD-based car-mp3

Hi,
I am obviously a noob at specialized car-mp3 software, yet I'm not a complete noob at car-PC at all (this one I made for my dad. It runs ordinary M&G Travelbook (and winamp and video players) on ordinary windows - nothing specific about software there)..
Now I want to make a low-budget mp3-only car-PC. The output should be a graphic LCD (parallel controlled T69... or whatever) and the whole controlling will work with a few significant keys (play, stop etc. as you know from winamp). Those keys will be simplest a kind of selfmade-keyboard based on a normal PS/2 keyboard controller, so the software must interpret a "X" as "play" and so on.. This is technically easier than a serial button-controller and I have much more keys of course..

So I'm looking for a software solution that has a gLCD-support, a clearly operating (e.g. it always shows a section of the playlist on the display, so I can scroll and select a title easily on the display) and can be controlled by "normal" keystrokes i.e. with normal keyboard letters. A cute visualisation would be fine, too (and additional gadgets like shuffle on/off status shown on display and so on)..

So my first idea is to use a fast-booting windows (e.g. windows ME) with winamp and a nice plugin that does all the things I want. I actually don't know such one . Maybe you do..
Of course I'll be grateful for any ideas and suggestions for this software issue...

greetings from Germany and sorry for my bad English
Nov

Markus Zehnder's plugin is exactly what you want. My last mp3 player was just what you described. Winamp on a 20x4 character LCD controlled by a keypad. Works awesome still.
