Customized widget
Either the ability to customize the size of the now playing widget or have additional sizes available. As some websites have set sizes for different things, and with only 2 available and unable to customize either one without "ruining" it. It's a big bummer.

Lindsey Alexander (Mr.) MergedInstead of the usual grey background screen, an option to have it in a different colour?
Would be a nice improvement I think. -

KevinThe 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.

Jim Park MergedLove 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.

George Peck MergedWhen 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>

jerry hayes MergedThe 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. -

KevinThere 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.

John Farrell MergedIt 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. -

John Farrell MergedBeing 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. -

NathanIt 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.

Kevin MergedHowdy! 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!

Mart MergedWhat 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.

Shels MergedI 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.

Shels MergedHello, 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 -

Sarah MergedWe 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!

Joe Audia MergedTime 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.
