1. new streaming icon is very nice, but I'd make the "pulsing" a little slower. In the code is 1500ms, but 3500ms looks better IMHO.
Agreed though I've changed it to 3000ms as I preferred that.

3. "next playing": CD-case (see above)
Have hidden case and replaced with a border for streams. I personally prefer the case but will see which people prefer.

How about ...
4. ... using the CD-image which is default in SiLVO? Example here
I've added a link in first post for that cd image. If people wish to use it then they just need to replace the default.png in the skins '\extras\cdart\' folder with the downloaded one. (this was easiest way for me to achieve this)

I don't know the aspect ratio, but something bigger would be cool
Thx for thinking about it
I've re-arranged things slightly to increase the area for the band logo. The only other alternative would be to increase it so large that the song info text would go over it.
The problem with logos is that although they use a standard image size (800x310) some logos do not do a good job of utilising all the space which means some look tiny compared to others.

Possibly Tongue

If I had any constructive criticism, I would say the text size of the codec info and next track are too small to read comfortably.
Have hidden the case and added a border. We'll see which people prefer.
Have also increased font size slightly for Next info

however Smile is there a way to remove the revolving disc and move the case to the right?
Quickest way would be to changed line 447 in the MusicVisualisation.xml from
Code:
<visible>!Player.IsInternetStream</visible>
to
Code:
<visible>Hidden</visible>
This will just hide the CD art. Moving the case would involve changing too much of the layout.

Many Thanks for all the feedback guys. Keep it coming

I prefer streaming sources without the case. But library content looks better with the case to match the spinning disc.

Also, the word "Next" could be larger.

Maybe didn't word it very well earlier but that is the default action. CD Case for library items, border for streams.

thanks sir
Hidden works and .. changed some code, don't know if I used the exact left margins etc, but it looks damn fine now.
All I have to figure out are the left margins off the vertical separators, the thin lines

@isitmeor - looking good. To adjust the seperators look for the code below. I've added notes for which lines you'll probably need to adjust.
Code:
<!-- Set Panel -->
<top>20</top>
<width>FullScreenWidth</width>
<height>460</height>
<texture border="40">listpanel_back.png</texture>
<colordiffuse>E0FFFFFF</colordiffuse>
</control>
<control type="image">
<left>293</left>
<top>51</top>
<width>2</width>
<height>396</height>
<texture>separator3.png</texture>
</control>
<control type="image">
<left>783</left> <!--ADJUST THIS FIGURE FOR SHORTER VERTICAL NEAR LOGO-->
<top>283</top>
<width>2</width>
<height>164</height>
<texture>separator3.png</texture>
</control>
<control type="image">
<left>1110</left> <!--ADJUST THIS FIGURE FOR VERTICAL LINE NEAR CDART-->
<top>51</top>
<width>2</width>
<height>396</height>
<texture>separator3.png</texture>
</control>
<control type="image">
<left>293</left>
<top>225</top>
<width>818</width> <!--ADJUST THIS FIGURE FOR LENGTH OF HORIZONTAL LINE-->
<height>60</height>
<texture>separator2.png</texture>
</control>

Also for the progress bar look for the following. (Again with notes)
Code:
<control type="progress">
<visible>Player.HasDuration</visible>
<left>605</left> <!--ADJUST POSITION OF PROGRESS BAR-->
<top>325</top>
<width>190</width>
<height>1</height>
<info>Player.Progress</info>
<texturebg border="2">osd/texturebg2.png</texturebg>
<colordiffuse>grey2</colordiffuse> <!--CHANGES COLOR OF PROGRESS BAR-->
</control>

PS sorry can't provide the specific line numbers at mo
