dont' suppose the problem with fullscreen vis being a low resolution has been resolved?, seems as tho the fullscreen is just scretched thumbnail view instead of true fullscreen if that makes sense

I found a small issue with My Music in a recent CVS release (not sure if it has been fixed yet). For some reason I can no longer scan for cover art for one of my shares (I only get the Menu options Scan and File menu). The other share comes up fine with the correct menu. Previously I could scan the same share just fine.
Also, this issue exposed another small bug. When I was going through this share scaning each folder for coverart separately, MediaPortal got "stuck" in the Music screen, pushing escape would go nowhere. I figured out that whenever you scan for coverart and then return to the share view it seems to add the share view to the "stack" that you then have to reverse through when pressing escape. For example, if I scan for cover art once, I need to press escape twice to get back to the Home screen. If i scan for cover art twice, I need to press escape three times. Eventually, I presume, I filled up the stack and thus was unable to get out of the Music plugin at all (not sure how deep the MediaPortal previous screen stack is) and pressing escape would do nothing. I had to Alt-F4 out of MediaPortal and restart it to get to Home.
Neither are a big deal, but I thought you might like to hear about them.

To make the Now Playing view easier to get to - i've done this mockup:
I agree! After the recent improvements of My Music I have tried to start using it instead of WMP but I get lost lots of the time and my girlfriend thinks it is very hard to find her way around the interface. This is a good and well needed improvement. Go for it!

Re: iTunes Art
Nope, you haven't missed anything. There's no way to do this ATM.
