Title: Windows Xbox Game Bar Musicbee widget/plugin
Post by: landcross on July 27, 2020, 11:00:18 AM

It would be cool if Musicbee would get a widget for the Xbox Game Bar.

The Xbox Game Bar is a feature in Windows 10 that can be opened by pressing windows+G. Since earlier this year, Microsoft has opened the system for third-party developers to add their own widgets.

One of the first third-party widgets was a Spotify widget to control Spotify music. I think it would be neat if Musicbee would have a widget in there too. To control music during games (though, it can also be used outside of games because windows+G always works).

For information about the SDK is here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/gaming/game-bar/

I have added a new plugin to support this - see: https://getmusicbee.com/forum/index.php?topic=33270.0
