Who's playing on tray icon

[rasputinschild]

I'm pretty nosy, would it be possible to have a rollover on the tray icon to say "User 1 - Artist - Track"
Just so at a glance you can see who's listening to what?

Agreed, that would be quite nice, but for technical reasons that I won't go into - it's actually quite a lot of work to implement.

Thanks,

You know what might be a decent solution for this? Adobe AIR.

SitePen, Inc. has created a program built on AIR called Queued to use with Netflix. It essentially takes the Netflix data and makes it beautiful. It also has a lot of offline features and it acts like a normal program.

You could always use Mozilla Prism to make a semi-standalone app, but I'm pretty sure you can't have it sit in the tray and have controls with it, like for iTunes or something.

Anyways, maybe if someone could develop a program built on AIR that connects to the Subsonic server, this would make a lot of people happy. It's just an idea.
