I'm building a HTPC and need a display. I just don't know which display will suit my needs best, and if it should be OLED or LCD!
The main purpose is navigating my music collection (using a remote control) without having to turn on the pcs primary display, so the display should be large, readable from a distance and preferably have 4 lines and be compatible with LCD Smartie. At the same time the colours should be discreet (no flashing red background) and without visible pixels in the background - I think it is very hard to tell from the pictures which colour combinations are best.
Since I'm from Denmark it must support the special danish characters æøåÆØÅ.
The pc does not have a printer port, so either the display should be serial/USB, or I will need some sort of converter/controller - I haven't seen any, so maybe they don't exist?
