Certain exemplary embodiments relate to entertainment systems and, more particularly, to systems that incorporate digital downloading jukebox features and improved user interfaces. For instance, a smart search may be provided, e.g., where search results vary based on the popularity of songs within the venue, in dependence on songs being promoted, etc. As another example, a tile-based approach to organizing groupings of songs is provided. Groupings may involve self-populating collections of songs that combine centrally-promoted songs, songs in a given genre that are popular across an audiovisual distribution network, and songs that are locally popular and match up with the given genre (e.g., because of shared attributes such as same or similar genre, artist, etc.). Different tile visual presentations also are contemplated, as are different physical jukebox designs. In certain example embodiments, a sealed core unit with the “brains” of the jukebox is insertable into a docking station.

A scanning stage with opposing edges to secure a slide during scanning and guide the slide during unloading. In an embodiment, the system includes a reference edge with a surface facing a first edge of the slide and an opposing edge with a surface facing a second edge of the slide. The opposing edge is controlled by a processor to engage the second edge of the slide and press the first edge of the slide against the reference edge surface. The opposing edge surface is parallel to a side of a slide rack slot into which the slide will be inserted during unloading. The system also includes an assembly having a pull bar configured to pull the glass slide from the scanning stage into the slide rack slot while the first edge of the slide is simultaneously being pressed against the reference edge surface by the opposing edge surface.

A display stand includes a stand unit having posts and a mounting mechanism; and a mounting bracket on a back surface of a display. The mounting bracket includes first, second, and third fixing members extending from the back surface of the display, the mounting mechanism includes a mounting plate forming at least a part of a transverse plate that connects between the posts, the mounting plate including a straight rail part having a straight slot and a bent rail part having a bent slot that is bent at a substantially right angle. The first fixing member engages with the straight rail part and is linearly movable when the display rotates, and the second fixing member and the third fixing member each engage with the bent rail part and are movable along straight portions of the bent rail part when the display rotates.

A storage device for holding record albums.

A mobile entertainment center includes at least one TV monitor supported in a protective case on wheels. The case includes a removable cover that protectively conceals the TV monitor when not in use. When removed, the cover functions as a table or TV stand and includes removable or hinged legs. The TV monitor includes a non-reflective glass over the screen. The entertainment system is syncable with other portable electronic devices and includes speakers/sound bars. The entertainment center is DC powered and includes a voltage convertor. The mobile entertainment center further includes a charging station, flashlight, storage compartment, watertight casing, swipe screen technology, a control panel with access door, built in battery access, a rechargeable DC power source for each electronic device, a DC powered built-in gaming platform, and interactive karaoke technology.

A monitor support assembly includes a base designed to rest on an ambient floor surface. An upright frame structure is spaced forward to the rear of the base and extends vertically upward from the base. The frame structure includes first and second vertical members and a top frame member that extends horizontally between the vertical members, A shroud assembly is mounted to the upright frame structure and includes a first central wall member and first and second additional wall members extending from the first and second lateral edges in the same direction. The first central wall member and the additional wall members form a receiving space. A mounting plate mountable to the rear surface of a displays screen is releasably supported by the upright frame structure within the receiving space. A depth dimension of the receiving space is sufficient to accommodate a display screen mounted via the mounting plate.
