You could also add an option to pin the bar to the bottom.

Trying to revamp the old players such as mpv and vlc with a more modern UI.

Exactly what it is my friend, but, in just doing a quick review in Windows Sandbox, it, Screenbox is missing the ability that I love in VLC, and that is in being able to customize the Toolbars/Controllers, especially in full screen mode (unless I missed it). It's like the nice option we have in customizing the FF toolbar.

It's hard to beat MusicBee anyway. Unfortunately, I no longer consume music from my Windows laptop or from offline files, so I don't use it anymore. But I was a happy user for more than 15 years.
