MediaFlyout

Windows 10 Media Control Taskbar Flyout

License Latest release
Flyout UI

Flyout opening animation

MediaFlyout adds a tray icon that allows you to control music and video playback.

It is a small C# WPF application that resembles a built-in Windows 10 taskbar flyout like Volume or Network control. It keeps the flyout window in memory for quick access, but consumes almost no system resources.

Tray icon is hidden when there's no media is playing.

Features

  • Middle Click or Double Click on tray icon to pause all media or play the last paused element
  • Right Click on tray icon to show flyout on top
  • Supports showing accent color on surface
  • Fluent Design support, including acrylic transparency
Flyout UI (Light)   Flyout UI (Accent)

Installation

You can download the application on the Releases page.

After extracting the archive you will see a folder containing batch files for automatic installation and the directory containing app files (dist).

  • To try the application without installation: launch dist/MediaFlyout.exe. You can exit the app via Task Manager or by launching Stop.cmd batch file.
  • To install the application for current user: launch Install.cmd batch file and check your taskbar. The script copies dist folder to %LocalAppData%\MediaFlyout and adds a record to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry key.
  • To install the application for all users: launch InstallAllUsers.cmd batch file - it copies dist folder to %ProgramFiles%\MediaFlyout and adds a record to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry key.

Uninstalling is very simple too, execute Uninstall.cmd if you installed MediaFlyout for current user or UninstallAllUsers.cmd otherwise.

NOTE: via MediaFlyout, you can control only those media players, which you can control in FN menu.

Contributions

Any kind of contributions are appreciated, you can also help by translating the app into your language.

Acknowledgements

Controlling playback from the taskbar was a very long awaited feature for me, which was supposed to appear in the next update of Windows 10 features, but due to the release of Windows 11 and putting Windows 10 into support mode, I decided to develop it myself. This would not have been possible without the following open source projects:
