followed your instructions.
Copy of GPU report attached
5. kiosk still looks the same on the Volumio server machine

Volumio log attached

Some nice to haves would be

  1. Choose font size for track details - could avoid scrolling by ability to make smaller
  2. Ability to size album art ,visualisation
  3. Ability to position display components. e.g. the full screen view layout but in a sizeable window

Thanks

I am planning a complete customizable screen in a few days. You will be able design your layout however you like.

Graphics looks good. Not sure why it looks bad on your laptop.

Can you try different themes from the settings screen (use the other machine to change themes so you can instantly see the changes on the server).

Did you press CTRL and - to zoom out on the laptop?

yes and it improves things but I still get white highlighted controls in kiosk mode

great, actually zooming out gives a good looking view

It would be nice if the rainbow edging to album art was also optional

Thanks

Yes that was one of the things I planned to make the border optional.

1.1.74

If you have the beta channel enabled, you should see this version for a new setting

Hi, I have updated1.1.74 but this option is not showing either in the Volumio installed plugins setting screen or in the browser settings screen

Another question.and apologies for being like Oliver Twist (always asking for more) :innocent:

Is it tecnically possible to add the album art to relevant Peppymter templates where the template has an area set aside for it ? The track details are alraedy there.

Thanks

  1. Try restarting the plugin or even rebooting the Volumio device to make sure new version is in effect. If the settings page was already loaded, you would need to refresh it.

  2. Let me check on the Peppy screen, it should already be loading album art, bit rate, other details. Some of those Peppy zip files have bad data in them so some models may not be working. I don’t maintain the zip files.

I am using this pack

and it’s working for me.

So I think that the issue is only when I use Volumio as a Squeezelite client so not something in your plugin per se. It seems to be OK sending the audio stream to Volumio as a UPnP renderer

Yeah if Volumio isn’t getting Album art OR doesn’t send the Album art in the API then nothing we can do.

I’m having a problem with some of the Peppymeter packs
e.g. the downloaded zip file 1280x800_g5_420_meters has been set up with more than one folder level. I can see this when I look at the zipfile in 7Zip
Downloads\1280x800_g5_420_meters\1280x800_g5_420_meters\1280x800_g5_420_0120
Looks like your code understandably does not expect any additional folder levels.
I tried to create a new zip file with only the files in one folder level
Downloads\MyMeters2.zip which contains one level of folder MyMeters2 with the template files.
Although it uploads no template choices are displayed
settings acreen message “Pack uploaded and extracted successfully.”

Thanks

Spotify is not working again 1.1.74

Worked for me. I uninstalled old version, installed new version. Restarted device, played directly from web browser + Spotify connect. I have 2 devices, 1 PC and 1 Raspberry Pi. Worked on both.

Also try stopping and starting Spotify plugin.

PS: I found that when the device is inactive for a few hours, Spotify completely drops out of the list of sources in Volumio (nothing to do with my plugin). I had to stop and start Spotify and choose a different playlist then it works.

I can’t get the wallpaper url, can you please change to #000000
black background instead of gray on Skeuomorphic Theme

I am adding some more settings to Font size, colors etc. Will add this to the list. It will take 2 weeks.

Today I started the streamer and the weather wasn’t working, I restarted it and installed it again but it didn’t help :disappointed: there is no weather :disappointed:

is it possible to lose (or change) the animated ‘rainbow’ effect around the album art?
