Theater View - Playing Now - Show Album
« on: December 20, 2010, 12:34:57 am »

Good evening all!

Is it possible to make theater view/playing now show the album name in addition to the artist and track name?

Thanks,
Patrick

At least partially. You'll find the option under Tools - Options - Theater View - Advanced - File Caption.
It's just [Name] there normally. You can change this to for instance: [Artist] - [Name] - [Album]

This will only be shown in the Playing now list view though. I did not find a way to change this for Playing now, or the Info view. Though it's probably not so important to have there.

In case you also play videos and other stuff, the Album tags etc will not be shown if there is no data. If you want the context to be different for different kinds of media, you can do this as well, but it needs a bit IF sentences.

Thanks for the quick help!
I will play around with it tonight.

If anyone knows how to change the Caption in Playing Now I would be interested.

Cheers!
