I'm not exactly sure, but if you havent tried it and would like to see a very stable and almost finished build, go here. This version is a self-installing executable.

and if you like it, update to that last build Carlos just posted about here

It should work for everyone but me:DD

New build (18 Jun 2005):

The main feature is that WCC can follow Winamp window state (minimize, restore, exit).

E.g. if you minimize Winamp WCC will be minimized too. If you restore it... If you exit it...

To test the new feature go to "Options>Player" and check "Follow player window state".

Don't uninstall beta 8! If you need it get it here: http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Winam...se/1109367710/1

This is a great program and I have been using it for a while but the only "problem" I have with it is that I do play a CD the Album look Up feature kicks in and tries to download a cover for it. I don't know if you added the feature in one of the later builds (didn't read the rest of the posts) but if you could add some kind of option for not looking for covers when a CD is playing it would be a perfect program in my eyes.

Can we have a "Pin to Desktop" Feature? And please bring back the "Exit when player ended..)

The exit is working along with the new feature. Do you need "Exit" apart from minimize and restore?

Another small glitch I noticed.

When using the "glow" skin, song titles aren't always appropriately aligned in the notifier thus leading to this:

Go to "Skin Manager>Text>Text area position and size (pixels)" and increase the "Reduce size by" setting (e.g. 32). Manage the "Left" setting could give you a better area too. Finally, when the case zoom is reduced uncheck "Center text" si also better. Try some settings!

Is there a way to make it read the cover from the folder above?

For example:

My Music\Album Name\CD1\Track 01.mp3

My Music\Album Name\folder.jpg

And when I think that I've seen all ways to organize songs and covers... A new one shows up! Unfortunately there is no way to maake WCC read this location. Sorry!

I'll see what I can do...

Yeah, that works okay. I just thought it might automatically abbreviate those long names using "..." instead once a title doesn't quite fit in. Cause it seems to be that way in the other skin styles like "Milk" which I used the days before.

I'll see what I can do...

In regurads to my last post, instead of having an option to turn it off make it so that it doesn't search for it right away make it wait for the CDDB look up to get done. I also have another question, when it does do a look up for a CD and puts it in the Covers folder how does it get the file name because it gets it wrong frequently--if I could put one in there I like/works it would be better then having WCC tring to find it every minute.

    • It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.
    • Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.
    • That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
