i would rather have a larger album art displayed than a WMP
An option to control the size of album art and disable the mini WMP vis would be great.

    set the player to directshow and you won't have viz in setup/music/audio rendered >.

    Edit musicoverlay.xml from the skin you want to change and make the thumbsize bigger there.

    thanks, maybe the ability the change this via the option menu would be ideal for newbies and stuff. not everyone can edit an xml file and it would add to the programs usefriendliesnss

    If you use directshow and then press x key to toggle to full-screen visualization, then what happens is it stays on the current screen and acts like it is in visualization (ffw, rew etc. work and so do the overlays). You have to press x again to get out of that mode... a bit confusing. Maybe have some sort of indication on-screen which mode it is in or a full-screen picture of the album art and id3 tag info would be good instead of a visualization.

The surface of PlayerFab is unknown to me, but "google search" tells me it's made not for our target group. Because of that and missing...

    That is not supported. In folder view you can just navigate through the pre-defined folder structure, you loose also the filter options, thouse are only existing in library view. In MP2 I watched SBS 3D movies. Important ist just the TV supports it, because MP2 send them of course in splitted screen and the TV needs to merge them. I...
