Do you hate it enough to hack your moOde 7.0.0 player?
I don't mind it myself---indeed I lean toward liking it---but with a few minutes to spare after dinner I sussed out enough of the feature to come up with a little script you can execute from the command line in user pi's home directory. Afterward, the 'now-playing line' in the queue will be denoted by an static ellipsis instead of by the animated bargraph.
If you don't like the effect, you can reverse your steps with
Why does this work? The animation is contained entirely within the two scalable vector graphics files. By replacing each of them with a link to a static image file already available in the distro we kill the animation.
Why not just edit the Javascript/CSS files that point to the svg files and instead show the line number like moOde used to? I'll leave that to you (hint - minification).
Why not point to a better image file? Hey, do I have to do everything? If you got this far, you can do as you like.
As always, no guarantees---I may be causing damage to some other part of moOde out of ignorance (I'm not a frontend developer). I'm sure if I am I'll hear about it

Kent
