Title: Include current cover art in slideshow?
Post by: eatmorepossum on October 20, 2004, 07:43:50 am

We're having a 50's Retro-Swanky-Martini party this weekend.  I"m going to be displaying distributed PIP content on all tvs.  In the main window will be various marilyn monroe dvds while in the insert will be media center.  I have a slide show with pinups from the 50's and various pulp fiction magazine covers along with other 50's graphics.  The music will be the top 10 hits from each month of the 1950's.

What i'm wondering is: is there a way to incorporate the album cover of whats playing into a continuous slide show?

Or if you have any other suggestions on how to make this look cool!

Thanks,
Chris

How about Importing The External Cover Art From The MC Default Cover Art Folder As Images?

Thanks king,

Thats a simple idea i hadnt' yet thought of.   Although i like to be able to look up when a song changes and see whos playin what.  So I was wondering if you could mix the currently playing album cover with a slide show somehow.  I guess they are mutually exclusive.  One or the other.
