Change the "PlayerName=iTunes" to "PlayerName=CAD" in the .ini file.
You'll need to download and install thisΒ poiru.github.io/foo-cad/ plugin if you haven't got it already. That should do the trick!

how to change it to work with windows media player ?
π: 0 β©: 1
Open the .ini file and change where it says iTUnes to "WMP". That should do it!

Probably not. Spotify seems pretty shoddy with what it'll work well or not with, I'm afraid.

How would I go about changing the player to something like the Music from the metro app. Personally I don't like installing stuff like itunes or winamp, though I've heard only good from winamp.
π: 0 β©: 1
Not sure if it's possible from the Metro app (runs differently from the desktop player - seems pointless having two of everything IMHO). I know how to change it to Winamp and iTunes and the desktop version of WMP, though.Β
Personally I only use iTunes because I have an iPod and now it has my whole library and everything sorted, I'm too lazy to find anything else!

Change where it says "Player=iTunes" in the .ini file to say "Player=Winamp".

It should do! You just need to change the player name.

Really enjoying the work you put into this, it's great! I did run into a problem though. I'm using Aria to play Spotify but the album art isn't showing. What can I change to fix this?

Thanks! It's a problem I've seen and am yet to successfully manage (which is why I don't use them for Spotify 
I think I'd need to add something regarding web parsing to get the image, but I'll look into it more.

Oh ok, thank you for your response! Hopefully you get a solution because I really like using the skin.

As do I. I'm enjoying Spotify more and more, and it's really pestering me now. Unfortunately I've had little luck. Sorry.

This is really nice. I'm using it.
Can u please tell me how to move the ALBUM ART to the right ?
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks.
Sure. If you haven't done this before it may be a bit tricky and I can do it if you tell me how much you want it moved by.
If you look through the .ini file, there are three bits you want (shadow,cover and glare). Each of these should have an X= something below. If you increase that number for each one by the same amount, you should be able to move them when the skin is refreshed.
See the sections labelled positions: [link]

this is awesome!! is there a way to make the title scroll? some of my song titles are a bit longer than the space can handle
π: 0 β©: 1
There is, but as far as I know, it doesn't work well and can make Rainmeter super RAM intensive. You could always reduce the font size or expand the margins for the text though.

how do i get foobar support? i replaced itunes with foobar2000 under [mPlayer] but it's not working...
π: 0 β©: 1
Change it to say CAD instead.
π: 0 β©: 2
What do I have to change to say CAD? Do I just replace iTunes with CAD?
Thanks for the skin by the way. It's really nice.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you.
As far as I know, CAD works on a completely different basis to Rainmeter, so unless a CAD version exists, I don't think it'll work. You could try changing the name though.

I've used Aria in my last desktop:

i'm not sure why my player doesn't show the cover of the album
help please? :3
π: 0 β©: 1
Okiedokie, what player are you using?
π: 0 β©: 1
it's iTunes
funnily enough it does play the music and all - I have no trouble with that
only the cover doesn't show itself
just black
π: 0 β©: 1
That's. Very strange, actually. I've never seen this. Have you got the NowPlaying.dll plugin?
π: 0 β©: 2
hai again ^^
yeah, i removed the NowPlaying.dll plugin and now it is playing normally but still it doesn't show the cover.
maybe there's something i could do with it? :3
sorry to bother you )
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, you could remove anything that relates to the Album image from the .ini (Shadow.png, glare.png, default.png, and anything else)
If you don't know how/can't edit the .ini just say and I'll do it.
π: 0 β©: 1
if you could explain, then i guess i would be able to edit it.
but if it's not difficult, please :3
or if it's more of advanced type of thing them i guess i can't fight with it myself )
π: 0 β©: 1
Well you'd only need notepad, really, but it's knowing what to remove that's tricky. I'll do it later today and throw a copy to you.
π: 0 β©: 1
okay.
thank you.
i'll be waiting then.

If you copy paste this [link] into the Aria folder, where the other .ini file is, it should work.

π: 0 β©: 1

A funeral might work.

Ahah, lol, HOW WILL I LIVE WITHOUT U MY ITUNES??? D;
π: 0 β©: 1
