Going against several Windows user interface guidelines, this plugin provides a Winamp control panel on the title bar of the currently active application, with next/prev track, play and pause buttons as well as the title of the currently playing track. It's intended to let you forget about locating the Winamp window to do something to it. You can configure the plugin via Winamp's Preferences dialog box: Disable (or, enable) the title and change the button selection. To make it coexist with some other "skinning" apps, you have some control over the button positions and the default bitmap that is used.

    Cool plugin. I'm using it under Windows XP Professional Beta 2 and I like the fact that it doesn't interfere with the Luna visual style because it just sits over the skin and doesn't mess it up. The only problem under Windows XP that I can see is that the plugin's buttons overlap the minimize button because the Luna buttons are so big. One suggestion that I would have would be to make the plugin's buttons skinnable, as that would help the plugin look a lot better in the titlebar, especially in the forthcoming Windows XP. Nice job! :)

    GREAT plug-in! If they could just add the songposition-slider as well it would become even greater (and perhaps add a "-" before the "remaining time"

    Nice idea. A little glitchy..sometimes doesn't show up in the active window (works fine with Notes 5.07a btw). Hopefully Winamp 3 will have this feature native

    Works as advertised, very customizable, doesn't seem to cause any problems. Seems slighty pointless sometimes, seeing as Winamp must be running so it's right there in the task bar, but it is somewhat convenient.
