It's not possible with any ready-to-use xine-lib frontend I know of, so you 
would have to
a) convince some frontend developer to implement this
b) do the necessary modifications to a frontend of your choice yourself
c) use a rapid frontend development system like xiron.sf.net to quickly code
   your own little frontend tailored exactly for your needs.

I am sorry that the majority of options require some developer skills...
