Ok, here you go. This is a first try - it might be pretty buggy. And
you'll need 6.5 or trunk to run it:

- download and install the 6.5 version of the plugin from
http://www.herger.net/AlbumReview

- replace the Plugin.pm with this version

- restart slimserver

You'll then have the AlbumReview in the player's Plugins section as
well as in Screensavers. When run as screensaver it will display the
content in one long line, scrolling along. It tries to keep in synch
with new songs etc. thus blocking the display while downloading new
reviews. You won't be able to wake up from the screensaver mode while
the plugin is blocking, I'm sorry.

Give it a try and let me know if it's working for you.

Have fun!
