Widget Media Player

Windows Media Player in a Widget!
Uses COM (WMPlayer.OCX), best if you have a stocked and reasonably well organised media library but not essential as will add dropped files to library.

Have tested on W2KproSP4/WMP9 & WXPhomeSP2/WMP10.

Open the info panel to access your media library, enter a search term and click on button to search either songs, artists or albums.

Accepts dropped files/URLs (WMA/MP3/CDA/ASX), so either CD audio tracks, radio stations, or folders containing valid media items and adds valid items to your media library.

Current Version: 2.2

Great stuff! What would make it perfect for me would be the abillity to select playlists (.m3u) as not all my files have accurate ID3 information. Other than that - nice work!

other than getting rid of the library window while keeping artist/track, it is perfect! once I can see artist/track info withut library window it will be perfect. I love it, very nice gui too.

p - not sure what the problem is there - have you toggled the loop-play button on/off?
steve - how about windows media player proper? does that hog the CPU as well?
allen & justin - yes, point taken re the library window, have worked that into for the next update.
thanks for the feedback everyone!
