Title: my flexible track info plugin, works in all sizes
Post by: NaTeDoGG on September 02, 2004, 04:25:48 pm

Last night I made this track info plugin for JRiver Media Center 10. I wanted a plugin that worked great in fullscreen mode as well as above the playlist in Playing Now. This is what I came up with! It scales down to a smaller size so it looks good in Playing Now but still shows full size in fullscreen.

Try getting a layout like that in FrontPage! ;):D

Thanks. :) It was alot of work to get it just how I wanted. I used (nearly abused ;)) CSS and JS extensively. I started just wanting the cover art to scale to the size of the track info pane, then the design just got more and more complex. It was fun though, I might try to make some additions.

I forgot to mention that I used a couple flash files from the neoTropic track info plugin. Hope thats ok!

Hey JRiver people (sorry, I'm new and don't know anyone), want to put this in MC11? :)

I've done a ton of work on this thing, enough that I think it warrants a thread with a better title than this one! I have it doing an image slideshow based on files in an "art" directory that is in either the album or artist directories the playing track is in. Click here for the new thread...

Hehe, we posted at the same time! :) Looks like you got the updated slideshow version. I'm not sure you have the very latest (I uploaded a few right before posting), could you get it again to be sure? I have been using it LOTS and haven't got an error about the "small text" flash object. Do you have IE6 on your computer? It might not work with IE5 or 5.5. Most everyone should have 6 though.
