The free Squeeze Display app is now available for download from Google
Play (Android Market):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.isaksson.squeezedisplay
It's an application primarily for people who have an android tablet
available which they want to use as a Now Playing screen for their
Squeezebox. The unique feature is that it shows continuously switching
artist images from LastFM, which IMHO is a lot more interesting than
showing the same album art every time a specific track/album is
played.
The only available settings is to select which player to show and
possibility to specify a remote server if it can't be automatically
discovered.
The current version does not support mysqueezebox.com and does not
support password protected Squeezebox Server/Logitech Media Server
setups, but this is something I might consider adding if there is an
interest.
It works in both landscape and portrait orientation but my experience
so far is that portrait looks best as the artist images tends to be a
bit small in landscape.
I did this app primarily because I wanted to learn some Android
development and wanted to have some use for Android tablet when I'm not
holding it in my hand.
It's intentionally limited to just show what's playing and doesn't
offer any control or browse functionality. If you try it and want to
have some simple control functionality let me know what you would like
and why you would like it.
