Media Controls
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Displays previous, play/pause and next buttons, and optionally album art.
Requires at least KDE Plasma Workspaces 4.10.
This pretty much works like the "Now Playing" widget that comes with kdeplasma-addons, but does not display any information (beyond album art, and that is optional). Instead, it will display previous, play/pause and next buttons, even when in a panel.
In KDE Plasma Desktop 4.11+, it will also display the icon for the currently selected media player if there is no album art available.
Note: the easiest way to install this is to go to add a widget to the desktop or a panel in Plasma, click "Get New Widgets" then "Download New Plasma Widgets" and search for "media controls" in the dialog box that comes up.

1.1: goes into two rows if there is room (eg: particularly wide panels), and works better on vertical panels.

But i keep getting this bug (a lot) where i can not jump to the next track (button greyed out).
(Using Amarok 2.7.1 on kde 4.10.4)
I dunno if this bug is related to amarok or to this plasmoid so i thout i'd ask here...

Could you tell me how to make this work with Xine or players that work like or based on xine-plugin?
I will be glad.
Thank you.
