Is there a way, using an existing plugin or otherwise, to display the
"Now Playing" data for the currently playing track in a nice and
appealing format with all the music related information present such
that it could be displayed on a computer screen and be visible from a
distance?

Something similar to Michael Herger's "Album Review" plugin but using
only the local information?

This page would not have any buttons or controls, just for display
purposes.

I wouldn't want to see info such as bitrate or filesize or date
modified. I imagine a page with the cover art followed by title, album,
artist, genre, perhaps comment. Having the ability to specify which
field to use and in which order would also be nice.

I've gone through the slimserver technical information pages and I
don't see anything that would do what I want. I haven't found any
plugins that would do this either. I know that there is an issue of
catching a track change from a web page (how to get a dynamic update of
tracks?)

I was thinking of maybe using Michael's plugin and modifying it to do
this but was just wondering if anybody had done it already.

Thanks,
Daniel
