Multimedia software is designed to allow your PC to act and appear as a home theater system (htpc). Some of these multimedia software can been cab and/or jukebox friedly. This would act like a main frontend.
There are some software, that may have addition plugins, that can start mame games directly, but you need to find them your self.
Multimedia Software is available for several different operating systems and may or may not be freeware. Often, if the software is freeware, a donation link is present on the homepage of the software to allow you to show your appreciation for the developer's efforts in creating software that frequently rivals and/or bests commercial software!
Multimedia software may also be "skinnable", meaning the appearance of the software may be changed by the end-user based on their preferences (so it can been changed to a cab freidly). This may take the form of preset skins within the software, or the ability to develop and share skins with other end-users.
Multimedia software often require a trackball to operate, but it may been configuable.
This type of software can been great, if you want to use a arcade controller (like X-Arcade) on a pc, that is connected to a tv (also not in a cab).
