Now Playing Music

[bnairb 6]

I'd like if the Now Playing display for Music might randomly alternate any images/album art/backgrounds tied to the song/album, and also display the info/facts that Media Browser Server already seems to have in it's database.  Music Choice on cable does that now and it's entertaining to read while listening.  Don't know if there's a public database that these "fun facts" could be pulled from other than the info you are already attaining.  I was just reading what Media Browser Server downloaded about Green Day's American Idiot and thought it was cool and interesting, it was a lot of info, but not too much that couldn't be on a delayed scroll while the songs were playing.  Would be a good experience.

I haven't seen the Theater Now Playing screen yet but I'd like to see:

 

Upon starting a song it should display title, artist, album, duration and an image of the album cover.

This would fade out eventually. In the background, it might pull images from HD Music, Last FM, some other providers, or even local fanart.

 

An option to have a visualization (Milkdrop/ProjectM, or something comperable) would be nice also.

 

IMHO best I have seen had all the above with the artist images in background and a semi-transparent visualization on top.

It was a nice effect.
