Animated Vinyl Player uses a spinning record animation to indicate music playback instead of relying only on a text track readout.

## What this skin includes

- A vinyl record animation spins while music is playing.
- The player interface is selected from the skin right-click menu.
- The source credits the vinyl-case artwork to God-x and declares CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.

## Setup and limits

The documented minimum is Rainmeter 3.2.1 r2386\. Choose the appropriate player interface after loading the skin.

Some players require additional plugins. The old Spotify-support reference is historical and does not establish compatibility with current Spotify versions. Current Windows-build compatibility has not been independently verified; this research did not install or execute the skin.
