my attempt at modding an existing theater mode...
this one has a big clock, a good sized now playing info,
the rest, including the big album art cover, Visualization are from the Cover List theater mode.

Version 3.0 adds Lyrics and ArtistInfo!

here is
"Timely Theater Mode"


This Theater Mode, based on Cover+List by redwing, displays the system Clock Time in a Digital mode, along with the Cover Album Art, Now Playing Info and 5 upcoming tracks. The Background has a Spectrum Visualizer and Colours determined by the Album Cover Art. It not only looks good, but is also capable of enthralling audiences if actually used in a Movie Theater. The Large Text is especially useful for viewing from a distance. I have used the font "Roboto Condensed". And it looks best with that font, but even if you don't have it, it will still work.


version 3.0:

Thanks to @redwing for helping me with the positioning of elements.
The original theater mode "cover+list" is his creation, of course!

Very nice! Just what I was looking for.

Question:  Where does the artist info come from?

How would I edit the following line in timely.xml to get the time to display seconds (hh:mm:ss)?

    <!-- Time -->
    <element type="Time" xAnchor="#List.5" x="0" yAnchor="#List.80" y="0" align="center" widthDock="x:#List.95" width="0" font="Roboto Condensed" size="32" style="Regular" fg="220,240,60" brightness="1" ></element>

Hi,
Is there a way to keep the cover aspect ratio ?
Covers that are not squared are deformed.
Thanks in advance and have a nice day
