@2aCD is there a way to move the text ect. more to the left?
can we add a background on albumart? radio’s have most of the time transparant as background logo
it would be a nice option to have it filled with a white bg.

btw if i resize the album art the fontsize changes too. if i make album art smaller i get really tiny font it seems to be connected to it…

Hi @2aCD

Is this able to work on a 400x1280 display?

dvo · June 23, 2021, 11:16am

you only will have half hight. mine is 1280 x 800

2aCD · June 23, 2021, 11:34am

hi @Thursty24
yes it works perfect with 1280x400. In additional you can upload your own background picture with 1280x400

I have update the download for this mod to 5.4
new features are:

separate x- y-space for albumart, to move the albumart better horizontal
white background for albumart container, if albumart used with transparency
disable albumart complete switch
possibility to load separat background for PlayView landscape
separate space left and right for title info block
settings for scroll bar width
settings for global scale factor

best regards and have fun

@2aCD thank you for your splendid work! I just completed my new Volumio streamer where I installed your mod.

2aCD · June 26, 2021, 3:26pm

very nice

@2aCD, As Sweden - Ukraine is impossible to watch, tried the update for “Install_appearance.zip” with v5.4. on Volumio V2.906

I found that the installation errored out on a missing file “/opt/volumiokiosk.sh”. To get through the installation, I’ve placed an empty file in the directory. Not sure if it’s needed or what the content should have been. But it is working

2aCD · June 29, 2021, 9:15pm

Hi @Wheaten
the volumiokiosk.sh start the chromium browser on a local connected display with some parameters.
Do you have installed the touchscreen plugin before you start the installation of this mod?
