Cover picture displayed whilst a track is playing.

Album / cover picture included (maybe under the time index in the log or next to the clock) from the MP3 / ID3 tag so you can tell if it's from a compilation or from the original single etc & also helps with shoutcast / radioplayer / tunein etc uploading so you know what picture is displayed from the tag to online users.

I don't know why this seems to be such an impossible feature to get. I mean damn, every radio automation software from Myriad, Jazler, and Zetta has this simple ability. Why is this so difficult to get? I run a movie soundtrack station and Playit live blows away the competition in features and value except for this one simple thing.

Just so you know, cover art cannot be sent to Shoutcast or Icecast; it can only now play text. I guess this assumes that the audio has the cover art embedded. For this feature to be added effectively, it would need to be able to be edited from within PlayIt Live. Additionally, most services, such as Aiir, have their own cover image collection, as playout systems do not send cover art, making this a purely cosmetic feature for the PlayIt Live operator.

Jonathan Rayne That's actually not true. Jazler, Myriad and even Radio DJ displays the cover art that is embedded with the meta data. I know because I've used them all.

Check out the players in RCast.net. They will add full album art to their many web players. You even get the first player free. You just send title- artist in meta and they look up and display album art for you.
