I'm working on some additional logic that will allow something very
much like this. I hope to add logic so that while music is playing,
SaverSwitcher will check every few seconds to see if the item being
played has changed. If so, SaverSwitcher will switch back to the first
When Playing screensaver.

The idea is that you'd set SaverSwitcher to use Now Playing as the
first saver for the When Playing mode, and if the song (or metadata
from the stream) changes, SaverSwitcher will switch back to Now Playing
so you know what you're listening to.

You might set it something like this for When Playing
1/5 = x seconds = Now Playing
2/5 = 30 minutes = Date and Time
3/5 = Disabled
4/5 = Disabled
5/5 = Disabled

Since the Squeezebox buffers data, this might actually lead to Now
Playing showing the song title closer to the moment it actually
begins!
