Is anybody able to use a linux media player on their kde taskbar like Windows Media Player can on the windows taskbar? I sure hope so....

I think to refer that in linux for example you got the mplayer embedded on the firefox window

For videos I think is ok but for music is not, so I configured the mplayer to play certain files.

The next steps are for a hd-install, I don't know really if its what you want or if it work on a live-cd
/home/seyya/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf
vo=xv
ao=alsa:device=film
cachesize=1024
cache-percent=35
dload-dir=/home/seyya/Multimedia/Pelis/Trailers
showtime=1
enable-wmp=1
enable-qt=1
enable-rm=0 <== *
enable-gmp=1
enable-mpeg=1
enable-mp3=1
enable-ogg=1
enable-midi=0
enable-pls=0 <== *
enable-smil=1
enable-helix=1
nomediacache=0
nopauseonhide=0
rtsp-use-tcp=0
rtsp-use-http=0
qt-speed=high
osdlevel=0
keep-download=1
noembed=1
Note the options I Marked with '*', I left this options disabled because for .ram, .rm files I use realplayer for linux (Helix) and for .pls files I use xmms (something like the winamp but for linux :lol: )

That is not all for configuration, sometimes firefox don't check again this configuration so one must edit the file /home/user/.mozilla/firefox/pluginred.dat and delete or put a '#' on the lines with the type files you don't want mplayer use. More simple is going to Edit-->Preferences on firefox and make the changes like it show on the next screenshots

With that changes I can hear music :P from the site you posted with the application xmms 8)

With Konqueror: window/show navigation panel.
Add the mplayer icon with right clicking of the mouse if it isn't on the panel by default.
