Preview Window Configuration [#18693 #18694 ]

Post by Dryst »

There are two things I wish to do to the preview window that appears on the Playing view. I am not finding ways to do this:
  • Turn off the album art that appears. I am being overwhelmed by album art. It is showing three times and only one on the screen is clearly visible.
  • Add bit depth to the information display. Bit depth is currently missing from Advanced choose fields selection list.
Is there a way to do both of the above?

Thanks in advance.

1) You can't disable Artwork from Preview: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=18694 Could you share a screenshot of how you're seeing Artwork 3 times and which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey do you see this with?

2) Correct, it's not available, added as: https://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=18693

Preview Window Request

Post by Dryst »

I use the preview window to show information of the item currently playing. Here is an example of mine right now:

The album art sometimes makes it tough to clearly see all information. It would be nice to hide album art from the preview window. The album art is difficult to see and also obstructs the text in my case. I would prefer if it were not visible. Perhaps an option to show or hide album art for the preview window would help.

Secondly, bit depth is not an available option to show on this screen. Just about everything else is:

Please add bit depth field to the list above.

Thanks in advance.

I missed this reply and your request. Sorry for the late response. Here is a screenshot below:

Note that only the album art to the left is fully visible.

Hi,
In Playing mode -> Artwork main screen image is scrolling if bigger than Screen and it is by design. At least it do that for me.

Yes -- I am aware of the scrolling. I disabled that. The art on both the left and preview both get resized. Resizing the art in the center would also be nice, but it is not necessary. I am fine with the darker image.

I also know that I can change what appears in the center. I tried this too. Weird things appear when I change it to show images for the artist. The album art was the best option I had found.
