I really like looking at the album art of the music I listen to and the latest plexamp update made it much smaller. Compare

Any way to get the old appearance back?

disable Settings > Player > Side by Side Layout
Thanks!
@tom80H
A clarification, and a couple questions:
Clarification: The Side-by-side setting is in Settings > Appearance > Player
Question: The description of the Side-by-side setting says Show the play queue next to the player when in landscape. Is there a setting somewhere to enable/disable “Landscape,” or is it just based on the shape of the window? I stretched my window into what would be considered a landscape shape, but the side-by-side mode didn’t change. I tried closing and re-launching PlexAmp, but that didn’t help.
I’ll need to play with that option a bit… I don’t know the answer right now or for what circumstances it applies. I just remembered this was recently added and noticed that disabling it brought back the old layout with the bigger album artwork.
Are you fans of having Plexamp occupy the entire screen under certain circumstances, like during a party or DJ’ing tunes, or whatever? Does the Windows Desktop app have a full screen option, the Mac does not. Resizing the Plexamp is the only method.
You can drop the app on an own space using Mission Control – though the app is obviously not designed for full screen mode.
To get PlexAmp to be Fullscreen on a Mac:
Make sure you exited or force quit PlexAmp FIRST.
Shift + command + G
copy and paste this line into the empty blank space and hit enter
/Users/deluca/Library/Application Support/Plexamp
Next, open MainWindow.json file with TextEdit.
Change the following value to TRUE.
“isFullScreen”:true
command + S to save changes and exit TextEdit
Relaunch PlexAmp and it should now display fullscreen at launch

Fantastic, thank you! Trying it on a 30 inch Cinema certainly makes your realize is was not designed for full screen layout, but this will work perfectly for my 13" MacBook Pro for house music between sets or artists.
