Inactive state of Media Player and Media Player Plus widgets
SUMMARY
I've stopped using the Media Player widget that comes as part of KDE Plasma,
and switched to the Media Player+ widget because I think it's what KDE Plasma's
default Media Player widget should be. It not only offers a better, more
feature-rich, and customizable interface for wider panels (e.g. a sidebar on
the right edge of the screen), but also behaves and looks better (and not
buggy) when inactive.
When inactive, KDE Plasma's integrated Media Player widget not only displays a
large symbolic icon (media-play-stop or media-playback-paused), but also fails
to display the context menu (Show Alternatives / Add Widgets / Enter Edit
Mode), which must be a BUG.
In that state, Media Player+ however not only displays the expected context
menu, including an option to configure the widget, but also it doesn't display
such a meaningless large symbolic icon in the place reserved for album art,
keeping it blank with only a caption "No media playing" below.
I hope KDE Plasma developers team takes some action about the future
development of this widget as part of KDE Plasma in view of this.
