Interfacing with character LCDs

[brandium]

does anyone happen to know of any character LCD control software that can interface with Sage and display info like current show, play time, and maybe remote control button press notifications? Or, failing that, is there any way to get that information using like windows messages or something, so i could write my own control program?

The first thread stanger posted will eventually lead you to this page. I just installed this this weekend and love it. Still get my regular display info normally, but when sage is playing it now tells me the Channel, Show title, total duration, and current position. There are other options as well, but I only have a 2 line display, s I had to choose. Truly worth looking into.
