NEW RELEASE!! Tickle Tunes 0.7 released 09/12/2008
Tickle Tunes started as a program for playing tunes, primarly, but, of course, being a front-end for mplayer, it also plays movies! It will play a dir-full, one song, or make and play a list of songs, or play a video, and, you can change the "skin" (or, at least the colors of the window background and text). Tickle Tunes 0.7 adds support for playing DVDs, and for playing a directory recursively (playing sub-directories, as well). Tickle Tunes is brought to you by Tony Baldwin & Baldwin Software.
Here is the obligatory screenshot.
