Hi,  
I have installed the Pi MusicBox and as a pure player of content from NAS it jsut works. What am I missing is more visually appealing frontend. For example I have not found a way to show album art in the listing (not only during the playback). For me the visual navigation is much faster than than searching through the list…

I have been trying also Volumio music player, the frontend was so nice, but the system was not stable enough on the old HW (Pi 1b+) - it was killing itself every few days duirng the DB scanning, causing the corrupted SD card…

Any suggestions with the frontend/skin/settings? Or another good Pi audio player for old HW?

Thanks!

Try [Iris](https://mopidy.com/ext/iris/), it’s very pretty.
