May 31, 2004 I can't get my WMP 9 to go into mini mode. I have right clicked in the task bar and chose toolbars then windows media player. When I open WMP and then minimize it it just won't go to mini mode. I have Windows XP with 1.7Ghz CPU and 512Mb ram. It used to work and then just stopped one day. Jul 15, 2017 Open Groove and play a track or a playlist. Go to the Now Playing view by tapping on the seek bar at the bottom. The mini player button is next to the full screen button. Click it to switch to the Groove mini player. CnX Player - 4K HEVC player is the best media player available for free on Windows 10 that supports tablet mode also. Some key highlights of CnX Player: Very cool intuitive user interface with multiple gesture controls Mini player aka floating windows view with Awesome video quality.

Pick a software title...to downgrade to the version you love!

Windows Media Player 12 Mini Mode

Windows Media Player has an interesting option that will let you open files in the Mini Player mode instead of the full player window. This is especially useful for opening music files where you really don't need the full-size window.

To set this option, go to the Options page (linked off the Now Playing button) and look at the first tab, which should be 'Player'.

You'll see a textbox titled 'Start the mini Player for file names that contain this text'. The default value in this field is 'voiceatt.wav', obviously designed to use the mini mode for voicemail attachments.

If you want to make all mp3 files open in the mini player, just type .mp3 into the window:

Or if you have all your music stored on a single drive like I do, you can type the drive letter, or even the folder path to your music collection:

If you want every single file to always open in the mini player, just type a single colon : character into the field. This doesn't work quite as well for videos, though…

Now when you double-click on a file in Windows Explorer, it will open in the mini player by default. On to the screenshots!

The Vista version is definitely cool with the transparency, but I almost like the XP version better.
