After you load windows media player and minimize it then enable the toolbar, move the mouse over it then left click on the description the pops up above the toolbar. Now move the mouse over the mediaplayer symbole on the left side of the toolbar and left click once. Once the media player shows up close it with the x in the upper right corner or with the alt+F4 command. The video should then pause and transfer to the black window that appeared behind the description above the toolbar. now just click the play symbol in the middle. if you want to get the player back to normal without loosing your place, left click on the media player symbol to the left of the toolbar to make the media player appear. Next disable the toolbar the same way you enabled it (right clicking an empty area of the taskbar and going to &quot;Toobars&quot; then clicking on windows &quot;Media Player Player&quot;) and the video should return to the way it orignally was. Whatever you do, do not right click on the toolbar because I found that the popup menu does not disappear and the taskbar freezes on the next click untill you disable wmplayer.exe process which makes it so you have to restart the video and disable the taskbar then reenable it with the media player minimized to set things back to where they were. to disable the wmplayer.exe process press ctrl+alt=delete and click task manager, then go the the process tab, left click on any process once and type wmplayer quickly (or search for the lising manually). once found press delete (or right click the process and select end process), ignore the warning, and click end process. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Getting the toolbar to play in mini mode is a little tricky, but possible.</p><p>After you load windows media player and minimize it then enable the toolbar, move the mouse over it then left click on the description the pops up above the toolbar.</p><p>Now move the mouse over the mediaplayer symbole on the left side of the toolbar and left click once.</p><p>Once the media player shows up close it with the x in the upper right corner or with the alt+F4 command.</p><p>The video should then pause and transfer to the black window that appeared behind the description above the toolbar.</p><p>now just click the play symbol in the middle.</p><p>if you want to get the player back to normal without loosing your place, left click on the media player symbol to the left of the toolbar to make the media player appear.</p><p>Next disable the toolbar the same way you enabled it (right clicking an empty area of the taskbar and going to &quot;Toobars&quot; then clicking on windows &quot;Media Player Player&quot;) and the video should return to the way it orignally was.</p><p>Whatever you do, do not right click on the toolbar because I found that the popup menu does not disappear and the taskbar freezes on the next click untill you disable wmplayer.exe process which makes it so you have to restart the video and disable the taskbar then reenable it with the media player minimized to set things back to where they were.</p><p>to disable the wmplayer.exe process press ctrl+alt=delete and click task manager, then go the the process tab, left click on any process once and type wmplayer quickly (or search for the lising manually). once found press delete (or right click the process and select end process), ignore the warning, and click end process.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> <item><title>By: billblais</title><link>http://techie-buzz.com/how-to/media-player-taskband-windows-7.html/comment-page-1#comment-56760</link> <dc:creator>billblais</dc:creator> <pubDate>Tue, 09 Feb 2010 11:12:52 +0000</pubDate> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://techie-buzz.com/?p=16407#comment-56760</guid> <description>While true that the video doesn&#039;t play and there&#039;s some occasional stickiness when moving from the full view to the task bar, this workaround was simple, clear, and exactly what I was looking for.
