I asked that abot 11 months ago ...

One option like you had the same idea, would be squeezing the visuals, and another would be to display the info line only for 10 secs ( adjustable ) and then you have full screen vis until you skip or the next song starts...

Many people asked for this ages ago ...
lets see how often we have to ask, i am willing to ask again in a year ...
