CD Player Interface..need help and advice

Hello all-

Been a while since I posted and I totally forgot all my old info.

Anyway, this is my new project Im going to try and tackle with all your help of course.

My Plan-

To make this (picture above) my interface for a “jukebox” type deal.

The Requirements

  • It will need to function JUST LIKE a CD player…Play/pause/stop/track-up/track-down, EJECT and LOAD, Display Track Number and Track Time, Power ON/OFF, and even a rotating volume knob.

The Twist

  • Below the player will be a few images of what looks like album covers and this is what the user will choose to select an album to play.

  • As soon as the user selects an album, it will animate and mimic a CD coming out of the case and LOADED into the player.

  • When the user decides to select a different album while one is still playing or IN the CD Player, the user will HAVE to press (click) the “Eject” button which will then animate a CD UN-loading and placed in its respective album cover, then the album chosen will then be loaded into the player.

Sooo… do you think this is TOOOOO much to ask for a flash player to do? Will this project even be worth my time?

thanks
