Ive been trying to find a way to have album art stretched to width of phone in landscape mode, just like yatse is doing here, but without the buttons, just the cover art. I would love the option hide the controls. I’ve tried all the kodi remote apps and web interfaces.

Why I want this:
I have a set up a headless car audio system using a le potato, USB DAC, and 5 channel amp. The potato is running coreelec. I control it using a bluetooth remote from my steering wheel and yatse on my phone. Its a nice setup that sounds great and allows me to keep my factory radio functioning. I would love an album art only view in landscape mode.

Sorry but a little out of scope, Yatse is a remote, if you remove the remote function it works a lot less correctly :stuck_out_tongue:

You can probably cheat this by using the option to set the thumbnail as wallpaper and have the phone show an home page without any icons on it.

haha yea hiding the buttons on a remote doesn’t make much sense. I tried the live wallpaper originally but could not get it to work. But after turning it on and giving it a couple minutes it started working! Success!
