Song data (title etc) overimpressed
I think that adding the possibility of setting song data (title, author), with custom layout (font, sizes, text dynamics, etc) over the avs window on the first and/or last seconds of the song would be really great. (instead of the really simple fixed-size system font text which, by the way, does not appear in the overlay channel, just in the windowed avs).

If, as I do, you connect your video card TV-out signal (i.e. the overlay channel of avs- avs in full-full screen) to a projector, you could have your own music tv program for your parties (and you would avoid lots of peoples asking "which song did you say this was?")

They should be global settings on the avs system, so you don't have to set it individually for each setting.

I hope someone finds it interesting for the next version of avs...

you can display some song data in any font or size, using the Render/Text effect.

or how about an algorithm that would convert the ID3 tag into vector cooridinates which could then be manipulated in a superscope. That'd be pretty cool.

but a superscope's just a local effect, when the preset changes, the scope will go too. Perhaps an option to keep the song title displayed instead of dissapearing after a second or 2.
