Lano Visualizer

Post by shelia_2303 »

hey,
1. I have a problem with the Song Information. I chose NowPlaying.ini but it won't show the song title. I tried edit the code PlayerName=VLC but it doesn't work when I open vlc
2. I feel like the visualizer is too long(not high) I want the line to be shorter to fit my wallpaper
please help?

It seems that VLC is not supported by the NowPlaying plugin (see a list of the fully respectively partially supported players here) and as such, you can't make it to work. If I'm not wrong, it was a while ago, but it's not any more. Sorry...

You'll have to modify the value of the Scale variable, into the @Resources\variables.ini file. Its value must be between 0.1 and 1. The higher its value is, the larger the bars will be. You'll have to find the best value for your needs.

Don't (re)install anything, usually this doesn't help either.
Instead check the code of your skin, to see what plugin does it use: there probably are some Plugin sections, which have either a Plugin=NowPlaying, or a Plugin=SpotifyPlugin option. Which one?
