WMP taskbar compatible with plus???

from Stardock Forums
Does the plus/paid version support the Windows Media Player entry that usually is in the taskbar? (Where you can change the song, volume, etc right from the taskbar)

No it doesn't. In fact, you don't even see the WMP in the dock taskbar when you minimize it.

Vista x64

Great idea though. There may be a docklet for this, not sure.

Grrrr! That just completely stopped me from buying the plus version. The only way I can keep WMP in the dock right now is I had to enable the section for open programs, which then puts the icon in the dock. As long as I keep minimizing it, it will stay there... but if I actually "X" out of it, then it will disappear off the dock.

That's too bad. OD+ offers quite a bit more that surely will help to create an efficient computing experience. Although, if you're going to get rid of the taskbar while using OD I can see how this may be a problem.

WMP actually is a resource hog. The other option is another third party media player. e.g., Winamp, Xion, etc.

Then you'll still be able to see all those great stats while using OD+
