I have been using Jivelite for Windows for a few weeks now and loving
it!  I've found two minor glitches I'll describe below, but first I'll
list my system:

1.) File Server in separate room running Windows 7 x64 and LMS 7.9.0.

2.) Laptop at listening position running Windows 7 x64, using web
interface with Firefox 38 to create "now playing" lists to play on HTPC.
I'll just call this machine "laptop".

3.) HTPC in stereo system running Windows 7 x64, using Squeezelite as
player and Jivelite to display the "now playing" list.  Skin is HD Grid
Skin (1920x1080).  I'll call this machine "HTPC".

Glitch #1: When I create a Windows shortcut to run Jivelite on the HTPC,
and choose "Maximized" in the "Run" option in the shortcut properties,
Jivelite does not honor the maximized state request and instead starts
up in the normal mode.  I maximize it by hand using the system menu of
the Jivelite main window.

Glitch #2:  Steps to repeat:
1.) Create a "now playing" list for the HTPC in the web interface of the
laptop.  Play the playlist to completion.  The elapsed time / remaining
time indicator and slider show correctly in the "now playing" list in
Jivelite on the HTPC.
2.) Clear the "now playing" list using the "clear" button in the lower
right corner of the web interface of the laptop.  The playlist clears
correctly.
3.) Create a new "now playing" list for the HTPC using the web interface
of the laptop.  Click the "play" button in the laptop web interface to
play it on the HTPC.
4.) In Jivelite on the HTPC, the elapsed time / remaining time indicator
in the "now playing" list now appears as it would if I were playing
internet radio, with only an elapsed time indication on the left, with
no remaining time indicator and no slider.
5.) Press the Backspace key on the HTPC to get back to the main screen
of Jivelite.
6.) Click the "now playing" button in Jivelite on the HTPC to show the
"now playing" list again.
7.) Now the elapsed time / remaining time indicator and slider show
correctly on the HTPC.

I hope this makes sense.  Overall though, Jivelite is great, as I have
taken great pains to get the highest resolution and quality artwork
possible for my albums, and it's wonderful to see them at large size in
the 1920x1080 skin.
