@jonas nice one, I think it looks pretty good

I would like this as well. Though to be fair, somaFM is the best.

@jonas Yes, sorry I misexplained. The image you linked is the one I should have been trying to emulate. I thought the rotation and patterning was possibly being done in code.

Here is one I whipped up. (it is transparent so just click to save)

@jonas

let's see how this looks

I looked at Clementine's source and it appears they just used the file data/icon_large_grey.png (attached) and then used code to tessellate it across the sidebar. Can you confirm this would be a suitable approach to take? It would certainly make my job easier.

@arno I fixed this by changing the area around line 113 in somafmservice.cpp

...
      RadioChannel channel;
      QString quality = obj_playlist["quality"].toString();
      QString format = obj_playlist["format"].toString();

      if ((quality != "highest") || (format != "aac")) continue;
      channel.source = source_;
      channel.name = name;
...

And then refreshing the channel list in Strawberry

I also removed the lines

      if (obj_playlist.contains("format")) {
        channel.name.append(" " + obj_playlist["format"].toString().toUpper());
      }

Unfortunately the github version doesn't respect the "use system icons" rule so now I'm recompiling from the Debian source version

I posted a patch file here

@jonas awesome! do you have any info about which file format/resolution I should work at?

We don't need an mp3 and aac option listed for every station, just pick the most FOSS one and let it be

Clementine has clementines in its tabbar, to me this is a vital part of the aesthetic. I am pretty handy at GIMP and would be happy to create the image if the developers agree to implement it.
