Re-downloaded MusicBee, missing the mini player that pops up when play/pausing

[zaisid]

Hello all, I recently got a new PC and reinstalled MusicBee. Originally, I remember that when I would press play or pause, the mini player would pop up in the bottom right with the currently playing song. However, now I cannot seem to find the setting that enables that. Can anyone show me where it is? Sorry if this has been posted before.

I doesn't seem like you even looked for it as it's so obvious: View > Mini Player

I think they might be looking for the pop-up notification, but I thought that was enabled by default. In any case, the settings for that are in Preferences, Now Playing.

when I would press play or pause, the mini player would pop up in the bottom right with the currently playing song.

Or possibly Edit > Edit Preferences > Now Playing: Switch player when playback starts:

my guess is the media control plugin is what the OP is referring to.
If using windows 11, the media control window appears in the network/volume flyout
