Nice idea. :) I would have to put it -way- above the top shelf though, or otherwise I would no longer be able to open the lid of my record player (which I still use since I've only ripped a small fraction of my LPs to disk yet).
Wasn't there a rumour about a wall mount for the Touch? aubuti;495226 Wrote: > I disagree that pixel resolution is irrelevant. You know the point isn't > to see the individual pixels. Packing the pixels tighter on the SBT > means you can make equally legible text in less horizontal space. Which means you are essentially using the higher resolution to create a smaller font. But if you want sufficiently big text (of the same physical size on both devices) and read that from the distance, it makes no difference whether that font is made of 24 or 32 pixels. aubuti;495226 Wrote: > Here's the NP screen with only text, no album art, side by side with a > Classic.

I see you have the track time in the bottom row which uses up some space. If you move that to the top row like I have and use the entire bottom row for the title, according to the photo I'd guess that you can show a text that is more than twice as long on the Classic, while there is only room for about 50% more on the Touch. But I admit that it does not look as bad as I expected. As you mention truncation, is it possible to turn scrolling off and simply truncate the text, or will it inevitably scroll everything that doesn't fit? I could live with truncation, I just hate text that is scrolling all the time. -- usch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ usch's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33389 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72534 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
