A way to make Google Music to stop moving album art

[anon6136263]

When I play a song in google music, it likes to shift the artwork back and forth. How do I stop it from doing that?

Pretty interested in this as well. Did you discover anything?

I find it pretty weird that it was not thought of to be able to change/disable it.

Let me know if you did. At least This bumps it back up!

No. I just leave it in "list" style view.

I have never seen that issue. Generally, I put all my album's into their own folder along with their artwork, and have never seen Google Music do anything to it. I stopped using Google Music a few weeks ago because Google Music was mixing my Greatest Hits albums together into one big album by that title... Google Music should know the difference between albums with the same title but by different artists... Samsung's music player does not have this issue.

Hi fatboy. The issue is to do with the way play shows the Artwork. Its like it overscales the image so every second it pops to a different spot on the artwork. I would have thought it would be programatically easier and less cpu intensive to scale the image to fit the screen width.

Very nice... now if I could just read your first sentence and make sense of it, OR if you actually just read my first sentence... "I have never seen that issue." Anyways, thanks for your comments.

need a solution for this problem aswell. i use a nexus 4. Help please.

 

[anon6136263]

Not yet. I'm still looking for a solution. I see Youtube videos and apparently the artwork is suppose to move slowly around. However, mine seems to go left to right, left to right, at a fairly rapid pace. I wish it was just static. I don't think there's a way to turn it off.

I'm having the same issue, and it's driving me nuts. However, mine USED to slowly move across the screen, but now it shows one half of the artwork at a time and is jumpy, like you say. I can't figure out exactly when it started to do this, but I've been scouring the web to try to figure it out.

Is
Setting > Developer options > Animator duration scale
set to off???
It can help with battery, but causes the album art to bounce instead of scroll smoothly on my GS3.
Cheers.
