I've never tried it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work with the
Windows client. I'm not certain about the Python client. There might
have to be some work to make the browser react to inputs - it would be
easiest to just give it a try with a mouse.

I don't have any mouse input in the python client at all.

You might need to unhide the mouse temporarily:

Modify this line:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xibo-maintainers/xibo/biela/view/head:/client/python/XiboClient.py#L3406

To be self.player.showCursor(1)

If it's more complex than that then I expect it to need work at the
libavg/libbrowsernode/awesomium level. It was never specified with
mouse inputs in mind!

Ok, that got me the mouse inputs. Seems to work without much trouble, guess I will have to find a touch screen monitor to test out with now.

thanks
