Hi everyone! So I've been using this album cover art 3rd party visualizer since apple canceled it way back on iTunes 10. I don't know about you, but really enjoy having a full screen display of the album I'm currently listening to. Now with the latest update, support for all third party plug-ins seem to have been flushed from the application. Sad!
Is there a solution? Thanks!

Hi George,
It sounds like you might have seen Bill's self-flagillatory note to himself and misread this as being a nasty comment from me. An easy mistake, considering most online discussions tend to descend into petty arguments. So I don't blame you for thinking this is just another one. 😁
Anyway, apart from the telling-off, I agree with the rest of your comment. I still recommend the Screensleeves screensaver as a good alternative. I have bought the Pro version and have found the developer to be very responsive - she has even implemented a number of my feature suggestions such as including Love/Dislike functionality and an improved track progress indicator.
All the best, Patrick
Hey Patrick,
Why so rude?? You are very wrong about others not having the same problem with the album art work in iTunes. I myself, along with many others are seeking for a fix after iTunes has lost the art-work visualizer. Just to draw your attention to the fact that iTunes is not only a music player but a means to deal with people's art which, apart from sound, is related to visual art as well.
If you didn't have an answer, you should've just said so and not snap back just because you lack the knowledge. It is frustrating enough to deal with Apple's rigid "my-way-or-the-highway" downgrade of iTunes useful functions, people don't need to deal with bi-polar reactions such as your answers here.
Good luck in making friends here!
George
I don't have a solution for plugins (Dockart has also stopped working since 12.6). But for full screen artwork, you could try Screensleeves which runs as a screensaver rather than visualizer.
This is great, I can never thank you enough Patrick! This made my day and restored my faith in apple community. Cheers!
Bill, face it, nobody at apple or here in the community gives a rat's *** about your silly full screen album art obsession. There just isn't any way to monetize such a feature. If you wan't album art, go out and buy vinyls!
