Station buttons without player showing

I'm using the pro-version on my tablet.
When pressing a homescreen shortcut, the player windows opens.
Now when you want to change the radio station, you have slide the right border, go to favourites, press the according button. Or go back to homescreen and press another shortcut.

On an tablet the player window is ridicoulos big with more or less nothing on it.

 Can you please make the shortcuts to start playing in the background or improve the player window and add a better link to station buttons /plus volume keys) there.

As it is now, it's a pain to change the station.
