[Feature Request] Date/Time when no song playing #43

Open KSuondProject opened 2 years ago

KSuondProject commented 2 years ago

Hi!

This is a wonderful project, thanks for your work! I'm not a champ with js and css, so I try to ask here if someone can help me to understand if there's a way too display the time+weekly day (like Google Nest Hub or Amazon Echo Show) when there's no song playing.

Thank you in advance!

Hey!

Thanks for using the project and I'm glad you're enjoying it.

This is a pretty valid request. My personal use-case was just exiting Chrome and turning the display off once no music is playing, so the 'No music playing' screen was a fairly basic one.

I'll have a think and see what I come up with.

Have a nice day

https://github.com/gregtbrown/whatsPlaying is a similar app to nowify and supports this feature. It also assumes it is a long-running headless app (like a PI connected to a TV), not something you just open on a tablet when using it
