A nice addition to fullscreen music playback would be the ability to pre announce the next song in the playlist that is about to be played.

An advancedsettings.xml tag similar to the existing <songinfoduration> tag could be used.

something like... <songinfopreduration>5</songinfopreduration> would bring up the info popup 5 seconds before the current playing song ends.

An existing <songinfoduration>30</songinfoduration> tag would see the info popup continue 30 seconds into the song as happens now.

could be done via addons I guess

I have hacked together this thing:

If you want I can try to add a setting to restrict it to only showing up when in fullscreen.

Thanks for your response.

Settings are left at default 20 seconds, and I have an advancedsettings.xml songinfoduration tag of 30 seconds.
With these settings your notification should be on and off before the Now Playing popup appears.

A couple of things I noticed using partymode and other playlists.

1. Title scrolling. The notification song title is attempting to scroll the title but doesn't. It just kinda jerks on/off.
2. Duration. The notification duration is borked. It doesn't disappear until after the Now Playing popup has appeared and disappeared. Both popups are visible at the same time.

Those were all caused by the same bug.

Added one line to the code.

Should be fixed now.

Updated on GitHub.
