Spb ToPlay WMP Today Controller - anyone using it??

I was curious if anyone is using this and how it is working? I tried to install it and it goes through all the motions, but even after a soft reset I can not add it to my Spb tabs or as a today item. Any thoughts?

For those that don't know about Spb ToPlay, it is a free, stand alone today plug-in that offers controls for WMP on the today screen.

It works for me along with the "Folder". When you are in the Today plugin settings page (the one that says Main, Connections, System), click Add and it will appear as an option. Then it will become its own tab.

Yup, that is exactly what I thought should happen (the Spb folder does work for me).

My problem is that it goes through all the motions of an install, but I can not find any ToPlay files/folder/ or registry settings after the install. I have installed with both the exe and the cab. ActiveSync lists the program as unistinalled (no check mark), so I check it, goes through the install process again (have tried to install in main memory and on card), but again it does not seem to actually install anything.
I don't mind manually entering registry entries and copying files to try to get this to work. So if no one has any ideas on what is wrong with my setup could someone send me the files and possibly a screen shot of the registry.
I believe the files should be under Program Files\Spb ToPlay and the registry entries are located at HKLM\Software\Spb Software House\Spb ToPlay and HKLM\Software\Spb Software House\Shared\TabPlugins\Spb ToPlay. Okay, that is probably a little too involved and probably still isn't all of it.....

That plugin only works in conjunction with SPB Pocket Plus--it's a plugin for Pocket Plus, not itself a Today Screen plugin. So in order to get it to show up you need to buy and install Pocket Plus first.

SPB Pocket Plus (3.1) is and has been installed And I know how the tab is supposed to be added as I have installed the Spb folder tab already without issue.

I have a plugin up on my site that shows you the Artist, Song, and Time on the Today screen of whatever song is currently playing in WMP. No controls though, but someone out there might find it handy.

Yup, visted your site and saw some pretty cool tools and programs. Well, I guess all I was looking for was simply a play button on the today screen to control WMP, with out having to install another media player and adding more clutter to the today screen. I know that there is this Mort player that has a today plugin, but would just prefer to have the controls intergrated with Spb as another plugin would require a scroll bar on the today screen.
