User Guide
For the most part this extension is pretty simple. There are no configuration options.
This is a list of the possible features and functionality of this extension. Not all players expose/support the below features or functionality via MPRIS. If a feature or functionality is not present or is non-functional in this extension for a given player it is because it is not exposed/supported by that player, or it is broken in that player's MPRIS implementation. A player may expose/support several, none or all of the below features or functionality in random combination.
In practice that means generally, if you see a UI element it works and does stuff. Otherwise if you don't see a UI element, well, you can't do whatever it was supposed to do via MPRIS in that player anyway, that's why it's hidden. Keyboard Shortcuts & Mouse Button Actions either work or they don't, again depending on if the Action is exposed/supported by that player via MPRIS.
Mouse Button Actions and Keyboard Shortcuts affect the active player (the player who's icon is shown in the panel).
