Question / Enhancement Show Controls at Top of Album Artwork

[njohnson85]

Is it possible to keep the controls at the top of the Album artwork once it fills in? Currently it moves to the bottom which is not visible without scrolling on my wall kiosk (Fire 7). It is not a huge deal to scroll to the bottom but requires explanation for users that do not understand that.

I had a similar need - and came up with a creative solution. Maybe this is helpful for you?

This is actually three players stacked above each other. Certainly not the most resource friendly solution, but gives me exactly the visuals I wanted from this great card.
