Questions / Re: Auto switch to Now Playing if track/album is played from Music screen?

Hmmm... that's promising.  But when I set "Switch player when playback starts" to Theater Mode, it seems to use a different theater mode than the "Artist Picture (Embedded)" plugin that I prefer.  If I click on MusicBee > View > Theater Mode, I see an "Artist Picture" option listed, but when loaded it doesn't match the plugin I downloaded.  Any ideas?

Ah! Okay, thanks, Phred. I'm happy to do that, but after searching the Questions, I don't see a unified thread the theater model called, Artist Picture (Embedded).  There seem to be many threads about that theater mode.  Am I misunderstanding something?  Should I just add my questions to onto any one of those threads?  Any further guidance re correct behavior would be appreciated.  Thanks,

Hi Phred,

The Albums and Tracks view does something similar to what I'm looking for:  that lists the tracks of every album cover that is currently visible.  In my case, where I've purchased many "singles", not the whole album, that results in a lot of white space.

I'd much prefer a more efficient (and more attractive?) solution whereby I can see all those lovely album covers in a dense bank of rows, and see the track listings for only the album that it is currently highlighted.

Perhaps I'm asking for too much -- but I do like to ask!

Hello,

How can I have MusicBee automatically switch to the Now Playing screen when I play a song or album directly from the Music screen?

Thanks,

Jay

Questions / Now Playing screen: Add full track listing

« on: November 09, 2019, 03:09:31 AM »

Hello,

How can I have the full track listings of an album appear on the Now Playing screen if the Now Playing screen is already showing the artist biography (left side panel), the track progress (bottom panel), and the lyrics (right side via the LyricsReloaded plugin)? 

See link to visual explanation.  Thanks,

Jay

Questions / Now Playing screen: widen the left-side panel?

« on: November 09, 2019, 03:03:05 AM »

Hello,

Is there way to widen the left-side panel on the Now Playing screen (in my case, so  there is more room for the artist biography)?

See link to visual explanation.  Thanks,

Questions / Music screen: display tracks of each highlighted album

« on: November 09, 2019, 02:23:58 AM »

On the music screen, as I highlight one album cover after another using the left/right keys, is there way to have the full track listing of each highlighted album appear?  I'd like to have the track listings appear as I cycle through the albums from the keyboard, and not have to click on each album cover to see the track listings.

I'm thinking the track listings could automatically appear in the bottom panel (along with the track progress, if something's playing) or alternatively, in the right panel (which I'm not currently using on the album cover screen).

See link to visual explanation.  Thanks,

Jay
