Feature Request: Mini View

[Dillie-O]

Greetings!

I just stumbled across this app and I love it! Thanks for your hard work.

One feature request, would be the ability to have a "mini player" view much like how the Google Music Player, iTunes, and others have. I like to keep a "square mini view" open on my alternate desktop with the players running, and this would be great.

Thanks for making this!!!!

Not a bad idea, but it requires quite a bit of work, and a nice UI design. Maybe some day. Contributions are welcome (both on design and implementation).

I'm not much of a designer, but if I were to make a recommendation that seemed pretty straightforward, consider looking at this app:

https://www.googleplaymusicdesktopplayer.com/

They have their source in github as well. I looks like they are using most of the basic layout options already in Google Music, and just overlaying play controls on it. You could easily grab album artwork for the "mini player" and have the controls overlaid that way.

Just some random thoughts. I hope this helps. Thanks again for building this!!!!

Good pointers, that app is under MIT license too allowing reusing their code.
