@WiiM Team, Nice update. Would it be possible to have the option to keep the display fixed so that the image is on the left, and the progress bar, controls, and other details always remain on screen. I don't like it when it changes to the central image, and the other details disappear from the screen.

Also, I would prefer the artist, album, and track details to be shown to the right of the image when lyrics are turned off.

Sorry for being a selfish child

Is it possible to switch between "Lyrics", "Queue" and "Lyrics+Queue" while keeping the controller display fixed?

Personally, I would like to always have the lyrics and Queue displayed.

Thank you for your consideration!

I would add the option for No lyrics, or queue.

Sure, the default is the current controller screen

 

[QuarryHunslet]

But definitely not the central image screen.

 

[Mr Ee]

Thank you, I will look forward to it.

You should try looking left instead.

If wiim can do lyrics in the tv app I wonder when / if it will come to the home app.
The one thing I miss about Amazon Music was album art and lyrics on the same screen.

 

[hgo58]

The lyrics work generally very well but when a song is available in different versions, for example as album and live versions, the album lyrics are used and live is completely out of synch.

Check out the "Hell Freezes Over" version of "Hotel California".

 

[pjorgenunes]

The lyrics work very well. It can even get for songs with titles like: Strange Days [Remastered], it correctly gets the Strange Days ones.

Very happy user here

 

[Mr Ee]

I'm really liking the ability to shows lyrics....

But I'm finding it surprisingly frustrating that the font size changes for the current line, so that what was one line often become two lines on the screen when it is highlighted.
The movement is also rather jerky, especially compared to, for example, how Tidal scrolls.

 

[Mr Ee]

I just turned lyrics off - was that awful 3 dancing bars thing always there once it switches to the full / middle screen artwork?
Can't say I remember seeing it originally, and I thought wiim got the message about these things when we all complained when the ultra screen had them!

Mine is similar, but I'm not sure if this is a problem with the TV app or my GoogleTV CPU (or RAM).

The TV app on the Fire stick seems slightly smoother though..

And I reboot the GoogleTV app rather frequently, as this kind of glitch often happens..

Replying to myself, but it seems someone at wiim really likes those dancing bars.
They've been added to the lyrics screen too in a newer version so there's no escaping them now.
Tacky, pointless, distracting - let me know when they get rid of them or make them an option; until then I'll not be using it again!!

I was going to say Simon Smith then re-read your comment

Well, they are amazingly bad dancing bars, so...
