[Feature Request] Date/Time when no song playing

[KSuondProject]

Hi!

This is a wonderful project, thanks for your work!
I'm not a champ with js and css, so I try to ask here if someone can help me to understand if there's a way too display the time+weekly day (like Google Nest Hub or Amazon Echo Show) when there's no song playing.

Thank you in advance!

Hey!

Thanks for using the project and I'm glad you're enjoying it.

This is a pretty valid request. My personal use-case was just exiting Chrome and turning the display off once no music is playing, so the 'No music playing' screen was a fairly basic one.

I'll have a think and see what I come up with.

https://github.com/gregtbrown/whatsPlaying is a similar app to nowify and supports this feature. It also assumes it is a long-running headless app (like a PI connected to a TV), not something you just open on a tablet when using it

Thank you so much for making for this project. When music is not playing, it'd be amazing to have a slideshow of X number of recently played songs, with a time / date display as an option. Also, it could be neat to have a (for example) 9x9 grid of recently played cover art.

I am planning to use something like this with on a 1:1 square 1920x1920 resolution monitor—which was very expensive if you were wondering—mounted on the wall acquired specifically for this purpose as an art piece. I'm quite pleased there's already something around that fits my purpose almost exactly.

I'll take a dig into the code and see if there's anything I can contribute.

I've made something that can interested, it's a forked version that when there's no song playing date time will display up.
