There is a Google Summer of Code project for a Plasma media center
application by Alessandro Diaferia ( http://alediaferia.wordpress.com/ ).
You might want to contact him or check out the current status of the code,
so you can avoid re-inventing the wheel. You might also want to take a look
at Qt Kinetic for something like Clutter ( I haven't used either Clutter or
Kinetic so I could be wrong about this ).
Good luck,
Nikhil
