Finally some Music Love here
Never noticed this b/c I display info all the time, i will take a look
I use vinyl as fallback, and just test a few random songs, I will take a look and change the font
Edit: changed
Added an Option
looks good, I like it, will add the changes (maby a switch for the Artis colore)
Your right, track number is not really needed, will remove it, not sure about the quotes
Looks good will add it
I also don't like uppercase, just forgot to change it, thanks for reminding me
not sure on this one, most of my covers are 1000*1000 so 400*500 will kinda stretch them?! I need to take a look
Thanks for the Great Feedback, and posting your code, copy paste save a lot of time <3
Quote:Meowmoo, I downloaded the latest GIT build and I really like your Alternate Music Vis Layout! One small bug I've noticed is that after <songinfoduration> ends, the shading in the back fades out, but the album cover and info stay onscreen.

I had to lower <posy> from -200 to -170. I also felt that the logo.png sat a little high, so I changed that from -300 to -280. I replaced

Quote:I also changed this in the Next: area as well. If Party Mode is on, it now also displays that with the number of tracks played in parentheses before Next: and changed both to gray text. I also swapped artist and song title to match it above and changed the color of the artist font to match TitleColorVar. I replaced

Quote:You can see that I also prefer normal case to uppercase for the Now Playing info. I think it looks nicer and you can fit more characters before it starts to scroll. The only way I could figure out to change this was to edit font.xml. In the first section labeled
