Option to disable album art

Whenever I listen to music using Deezer the whole album art shows up on my lock screen. Its not even of high quality. Music apps such as Google music have an option to remove album art whilst playing. The only way around this problem is to disable notifications for Deezer but this removes the box that allows me to play/pause etc. It would be nice to have an option to remove the album art, keep the media controls and allow me to look at my lovely lock screen I picked myself.

    This should be considered. Looked into this issue as well, and it ain’t a good presentation. I don’t mind this actually, as long as image quality is good. But please have this be an option, and have album art disabled by default. I actually come across this stuff sometimes still, and I don’t like it.

     

    P.s. I love Rameses B.

    This should be a basic option, I also dislike seeing a blurry ugly low res picture in my lockscreen. Just please, remove the album art, or give us the option to disable it. It's not like most people are not actually paying to use the service, just to be at the mercy of the developers.

    Years go by and no solution offered, way to go deezer. The album art is terrible, blurry low res pictures stretched to the whole screen, no option to disable and also some of the album cover "art" is just horrible. If even GPM could offer a disable option, I can't see why deezer can't.

    So…by now it‘s 2021 and the option to disable the album covers still isn‘t there. It‘s randomly cropped, it‘s blurry and pixelated due to low resolution. I really wonder what‘s supposed to be „appreciated“ while it looks like I accidentally set a highly compressed gif-file from the 1990s as my lockscreen wallpaper :dizzy_face:
