Is it possible to make this skin reversed? As in, album cover art on the right, with all the text aligned to it. Basically a mirrored version of this.

So I load it up, don't have the control options, "Play, Pause, Back, Forward" Windows 8.1. Visualizer works fine.

Are there image files in the resources folder under the skin folder? (Found under My Documents by default)


Also, do you see any error messages in the console? (Tray icon > About)

Hello, this is kinda old but I have the same problem.
There isn't any control options or album art, just the black gradient background.
There's image files in the resources folder, and also there are errors in (Tray icon > About)

Solutions?

Hey, I'm new to this and have a few questions
1st, how do we disable the colors? i'm trying to go for a minimalist look
2nd, when using the skin i've noticed that the bass levels have this 'staircase' effect. its also visible in the pictures above. is it supposed to be like that and if not how can i fix it?
thanks for the help, i love this skin

Hi there,


The randomized album colors are hard-coded in the script, but I'm in the process of rehauling everything (separating the color retrieval from the visualizer andΒ separating the visualizer from the skin). I hope you can wait a bit


The staircase effect is supposed to be like that... It's how the AudioLevel plugin maintains the data points for lower frequencies. You could try increasing the FFTSize variable, but that really hurts your computer


Thanks for the support, let me know if you have other questions

Thanks for the reply,

I managed to turn off the colors of the bars by changing ColorIntensity and ColorTransitionTime to 0 in the variables. The play/pause, skip and rewind buttons still have colors though.

I also increased the FFTSize and it fixed it Lowered the frame rate of the bars by a little bit but the trade off was worth it in my opinion.

Can't wait for what's to come, keep up the good work dude!

Cool, glad you figured it out!


There's still a lot of new skin concepts left to implement. I'll be on spring recess very soon and will be able to work on these more, so stay tuned!

Thanks, and cheers for the first comment!


I just rehauled the skin. It's now mainly designed for albums, but you can still access all the variety of colors by changing the ColorPlaylist variable from "AlbumArt" to "RandomColorPlaylist"


EDIT: I edited the post to explain how you can have both album colors and custom colors at the same time


Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or concerns!
