morning

i currently use wmp11. however when running wmp11 and photoshop cs3 at the same time on vista, cs3 is very sluggish. ive replicated the problem many times so im pretty sure this is it.

So i want your thoughts on an alternative. must have the little mini-player in bottom, and i dont want itunes. needs a good shuffle algorithm too not like wmp11 that plays the same song twice in 10mins :|

last i checked winamp, it didnt have a toolbar player.

Have a look in the Audio/Radio Players section for a selection of half decent Audio players, Foorbar 2000 is very good.

I'd suggest Winamp. Mainly 'cos I uses it.

Winamp doesn't have a tray control function built in, but it does have global hotkeys so you can pause/play/stop/jump forward/jump backwards etc with them or you could just search the Winamp sites plugin section for 'tray' and get http://www.winamp.com/plugins/search/?q=tray.
