Same as asked in the links below, I would like to be able to disable the reflection / mirror effect on albumart in the expanded panel.

Preferably an enable/disable selector, but personally I would also be happy if it was by default enabled when 'auto-pick panel colours' is selected, and disabled when 'auto-pick panel colours' is off.

Thanks for this.
Clean and 'as is' is better. (in my book)

Did somebody say complain? I love to complain - it's a Canadian thing, I think

Personally, I like the auto-colour. I do find it helps the readability by adding some contrast to an otherwise uni-colour background. I could live without reflections though, but I wouldn't be overly put off if the choice was one (reflections + auto-colour) or the other (no reflections, no auto-colour)
Just my 5ยข

You did. And I thought Canadians weren't complainers because they're always so nice and polite.

I could live without the reflection effect too

I like the auto-color also. Ideally I'd like to see the auto-color without the reflections. I found that having both enabled caused the reflection to barely be visible.
