  Station Profile: A white background is currently reflected behind/around the station logo even though the background was removed prior to upload.
  
  The logo is transparent in the station dashboard's User Profile section, but not in the Profile Player.

  Instead of the usual grey background screen, an option to have it in a different colour?
  Would be a nice improvement I think.

  The release of the new "Embeddable Player and the Last Played" widgets is cool, but there need to be small "horizontal" choices for both widgets. The horizontal & vertical sizes of the previous embedded players were great, but customizable widgets would be "perfect" because all websites are different.

  Love the functionality of the new widgets. I suggest providing an option for each user to add a hexadecimal color preference for the background only, or display a limited pallet of colors to choose from.

  When the player is instantiated, it appears to default to 50% volume. This is apparently not changeable with code. Might it be possible to add a parameter to set volume? For example: <iframe width="300" height="625" frameborder="0" src="https://live365.com/embed/player.html?station=a27458&s=sm&m=dark&volume=100%"></iframe>

  The player generator should be able to specify:
  Dynamic vs. Static
  > If static, size desired.
  Display album art YES | NO
  Background of player the cover art for the song or default if not available (like your old player does)
  Display EQ visualizations
  Social Media Sharing options
  Specify colors or select areas or pre-built format with several options
  > Ability to edit a prebuilt design
  Ability to embed this across the bottom of my website/page vs. stick a widget somewhere on a page
  
  I'm sure there are a ton of other options others would want. while I love L365 in almost every form, the options for players now simply make an entire web page design look out of whack to me, and would love options to better blend it to my site.

  There should also be customized widget to handle browsers on smartphones. The current ones are somewhat static and show up very oddly sized on a smartphone.

  It would be great to be able to have full control of the styling of the widgets. As it is, we only have light or dark and a choice of 4 set colours. As the widget is displayed via an iframe we can't do anything to override the CSS.
  
  Personally, I'd like a 'minimal' version that has nothing other than the play button and the live365 branding so I can then style it completely to fit in with my site.
  
  I guess this could only be done if you had a custom CSS area in the area where we can grab the widgets code so we can work in there to style it accordingly then grab the code.

  Being a front end developer, the way the embeddable player sits on a a site has to be perfect for me and one thing I see missing is the customisation of the player is very limited. There are around 4 size options although each one is pretty similar. There are also 2 colour options and that's it.
  
  What would be good would be a more customizable player with an option to show or hide cover art (and the player would adjust accordingly and as others have said, show or hide album name (although this doesn't matter to me), basically allow us to create our own player to fit with our needs.
  
  Size wise too, I think there needs to be a narrow/slim version of the player that can sit in a header or footer on a site. It can still contain all the required info including the live365 logo but all the controls are aligned next to each other.

  It would be great if the widget had the option to be centered on a webpage. When I placed it into my website, it sat on the left side of the block I put the code in. Trying to adjust the block/column didn't suffice because it would shift differently from tablet, to phone, to computer, and there's really no code I found to get it to work.

  Howdy! I love the audio widget functionality. I just think it would be awesome to be able to choose colors, size of widget, text and graphics customization to help match up with the design of the station!

  What would be really nice is to be able to change the background color of the embedded player. This way you could match it to your website, etc. instead of just having the choice between black and white.

  I want to create a player widget on my website on the header, I have already tried it with the codes that you use, but the player itself won't move.

  Hello, I requestioned a widget design I need it to fit in on the header of my website. This is 1500 x 200, are you able to make it fit? I also want to make sure the player can still play as people cruise the website.
  
  Thanks,
  Shels

  We use Live 365 to stream our radio broadcast (built and broadcast from our station), and we are primarily a talk radio. Right now it is not feasible for us to encode metadata. The default player unfortunately does not look great when you don't use metadata (see attached) and there is not much customization we can do. It would be great to have a default or custom setting for these types of stations that looks cleaner. For example, simplify the player to not show metadata at all, disable "Buy Track," and to show our logo instead. Thank you!

  Time for a newer updated now playing/last played widget. Like the one in dashboard looks nice. Maybe more options of sizes and colors to match a stations website theme.

  I would like to see the Website Now Playing/Last Played Widget be like the TuneIn radio player: for an example, whereas the width of the TuneIn embedded player is
  responsive so it will adjust to the width of
  whatever section of your site you put it into. There would be no need for small, medium, large & extra-large sizes as the player would resize to according to the window size. It really effects mobile webpages and looks very messy.
  Could we get some upvotes and make this happen?

  The embedded player needs to be dynamic so that it is the right size for every screen type. The current versions just crop off areas when the screen size changes.

  Please consider adding scrolling text to the player widget, as our program titles from external partners will sometimes display an ellipsis. I have also created a dummy cart when we're on location to trigger the player to show metadata of the event on the player. It would be handy if the text weren't static, so the entire name would scroll. Thank you.
