I hope we can have an option to display Roon in a miniplayer window just like iTunes.

Iâd like this, too. After the amazing 1.2 upgrade, this is about the only feature I can think ofâŚ
Iâd like to see this too, or at least be able to right click on the icon in the dock (on Mac) and be able to get basic controls like play, pause, next track, and previous track.
Would be great if we could have a âminiplayerâ window showing just album art and transport controls. The normal Roon Remote window (on my Macbook) is pretty big and can only be resized down a bit. Appreciate that some will say that its designed more for tablets/phones but I spend a lot of time using Roon from my MBP.

Agreed. A Mini-Player like iTunes or Plexamp is the only thing missing from the current software. The Roon window takes up alot of needed space when just a small box showing album art, song name and basic controls would suffice when working or just surfing web. Roon: please add this feature.
You can create your own mini player reasonably easily using the Roon web controller extension.
On Mac I used an application called Flotato that turns web pages into stand alone apps.
You can also use Roonâs build in web display feature but doesnât offer and transport controls and it is very picky about which browser it works with.
I may not have bit-perfect exclusive mode, but at least the Amazon HD Mac app has a really nice mini-playerâŚ
American cheese comes in very convenient individual packaging. But that doesnât make it real cheeseâŚ
Iâd like to add my âvoteâ to having a miniplayer included as part of the MacOS roon app (iTunes like). Unless I miss something I donât think its available yet.
I came looking for a mini viewer display mode, seems an easy add at some point in Roon development.
