Hi, and thanks for your reply!
It's good to know! Wish it could be fixed somehow!
Now Playing Notifications is a superapp!

I've committed support for showing the filename if the tag information isn't available.
A workaround would be to get the image, resize it (multiple times for the small notification and for the larger notification), put the resulting images in the folders that the notification plugin does look for images and hope that we don't encounter a race condition. Doing all this, BTW, would make the N900 rather slow when pressing the "next track" button repeatedly.

I'm looking at https://garage.maemo.org/pm/task.php...roject_id=2599 .
It wouldn't take long to add statusbar applet functionality (I've written a few of those already =)) to the notifier.
This is what I've come up with:
The album art is real, is from MAFW and resizing it is no problem.
Ignore "Example Title" and "Value"; you already know that we can get those filled in by MAFW.

My request would be that instead of showing some media player icon together with the artist and song, it would show the actual album art if available. Doable?

Wow, you are really productive out there, guys! Wonderful!
Wish I could help out, but it's not my thing... :-(
The statusapplet-function is a great idea!!!
This way, maybe it could be possible to turn the Notification On/Off??? :-)

Though I got this (sick) idea of having the configuration applet have a button, which would gather the album art from MAFW and batch process it to suitable icons. It'd take time, but since it would be in the applet and explicitly started by user, consuming time is no problem. Do you see problems with this approach?

I also see very little advantage of having the statusmenu button for notifier. It requires user to actively seek it and is pretty much the same if user would go to desktop and look at mediaplayer widget which is showing the exact same things. Agree?

I'm not bothered either way, TBH. It's much nicer to test it as a daemon, though.

Got it!
Thx alot! Good work!
Like the app, as simple as it can be, I don't miss anything. If I read it right you also wanted to implement a next-trackbutton in the notify. To me, that'd be the only thing further needed, but I dont know if its possible and if its gonna be easy to make a good difference between tapping it to go to the mediaplayer and tapping 'next track'.
Perhaps repeat track could also be usefull.
That's one more opinion for ya guys
