Hi,

Is it possible that everytime we open MusicBee it will be displayed in the mini player form? It's a hassle having to go and click "Switch to Mini Player" everytime we open it.

Thanks.

See the following for command line options, one of which is for opening MB n mini player mode

I assume I can't add any of those codes to the shortcut? Because I don't open MusicBee from the command line.

  • MB Version: 3.6.8849 P
right-click on your shortcut and open Properties
add to the end of the path in Target:
" /OpenMiniPlayer" (without quotes)
and apply.
double-clicking shortcut will now open MB in mini player

there is also an option in
Preferences> Now Playing> playback>
to switch to the mini player when playback starts

Go to Preferences> General
and set "minimized to" setting to "mini player"
and tick "start minimized" option.
Then MB will always start in mini player mode until you change the settings again.

Thanks for your inputs, it's working now just fine! At last, is it possible to also open the song list automatically? Thanks.
