Winamp Deskband is a toolbar docked to the taskbar that is fully configurable and fully skinnable. It comes with a built-in sleeptimer and playlist resumer.
It also supports system-wide hotkeys for almost everything. Furthermore, it supports multiple languages and it allows you to play your bookmarked files without clearing your playlist.
It can be used to control Winamp and even Windows Media Player.
Main features:
It reduces clutter on your desktop:
- There is no need for a desktop- or quicklaunch icon for winamp, since winamp is automatically launched by the deskband when required
- You can configure winamp to be hidden from the taskbar and the systemtray, because you can show/hide the winamp window(s) through the deskband
- The deskband is skinnable and supports multiple languages, so you can make it blend into your desktop perfectly
- The visibility and order of the buttons on the deskband is fully configurable, so you can display as few or as many buttons as you require or prefer
- The deskband can be configured to show the current track title and/or time, or a visualization when the mouse is not in over the deskband. This way it displays meaningful information when you are not using the deskband
Fast and easy usage:
- Winamp functionality is always available, either through the deskband itself or through the system-wide hotkeys.
- After using one of the deskband buttons, window focus is instantly returned to the window you were working in.
- Your bookmarks are easily accessable through the bookmarks-button. Also when selecting a bookmark, by default, winamp deskband does not clear winamps internal playlist (as winamp does).
- Full volume control (Volume Up, Volume Down, Volume Mute) is provided for both master volume and winamp volume. So there is no need for a volume control tray icon.
- You can easily switch between installed media players (If you like to use a particular media player for a particular media type)
