I have pCP running on a Pi 3 B+ connected via HDMI to my Denon receiver which then connects via HDMI to my TV. I had jivelite going which is cool but the TV isn't a touchscreen so the "now playing" info was all I was really interested in. I've been messing around this weekend with a console style status screen. Still in its' infancy and it took some head banging to get the alsa config correct. Just thought I'd show you what I'm working on use this thread to keep some notes - I'm usually pretty bad about doing that.
'tmux' (https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki) let's you carve up the screen (amongst a bunch of other things) which is something I thought would be critical for this effort. So far I've only got cava working and haven't really investigate what other console apps would be useful. Converting album art to ascii art for display in one of the console sections would be cool. 'cava' (https://github.com/karlstav/cava) is a console based audio visualizer. Let's see if the .gif works. This is captured via an ssh session but it works on the locally attached monitor also (but not at the same time yet.)
