I tested and I think you need to fix some things..
1) You need to move the players buttons/control/top buttons to the top. When the dancers are activated the buttons can't be used.
Remember that there is a sense of what do you put on top or below in the designer. Is important!
2) Better use "button" or "image" component to assign functions like the "stop" of the player, that txt..
2) Add right click options of the playercore, like settings. So the user can select the player.
For people who don't use winamp the widget is useless..

I did know about the button issue but was not so concerned. I really want people to discover Winamp so would prefer it set to use that player. Will make version 2 though shortly, thank you

There is no sense make a version two man! You're new here, so maybe you didn't understand..
Adding the "settings" right click option of the playercore, the users can CHOOSE the kind of the music player to use with your widget.

Check the screenshot:


As you can see there is also the Winamp player in the list!
XWidget supports more than one players.
SO WHY DON'T GIVE THE POSSIBILITY TO ALLTHE USERS TO USE YOUR WIDGET.?
There is no sense...

Winamp is more than 20 years old player! Sorry but sounds a bit funny when you say that you want "people to discover Winamp"

Are you able to explain this a little more pls Jim?

"Add right click options of the playercore, like settings. So the user can select the player."
How to I get to that dialog box you show?

Yeap.. This is the tab where you can add the "Right Click" options. Remember that you can put there not only tags from the cores but also assign various functions through script..
Cheers
