Hi all,

I'm using the Hauppage wireless MediaMVP connected to my TV communicating with a PC containing my music collection in another room. I've got MusicLibrary2 set-up on the PC and running smoothly and can happily play and queue up tracks and search my library from the comfort of my sofa via the MediaMVP.

But one thing I've spent a fair bit of time researching is how to get the visualizations one would normally see in Windows Media player showing on the TV screen.

I'm looking to get something like the fourth screen shot at http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Plugin/MusicLibrary2 coming through. Ideally, in full-screen mode.

I am fast coming to the conclusion that the visualizations are only possible if you are listening and viewing tracks via ML2 when on a PC, not via a 'dumb' device like the MediaMVP.

Is this a correct conclusion, or is there something basic I'm overlooking?

Thanks for any help.

You came to the the right conclusion: no visualisations through the mvp. Album art should work however.:o

Thanks for the quick response! That will at least mean I'll waste more time trying to fix this.

Hopefully this may be possible in a future version.

If you install the screensaver plugin, you can display the album art as a screensaver; not the same I know, but better than nothing. I quite like it.
