So, I like to watch movies whilst I work. So I can pop a DVD in WMP and select "Player on Top" and put a teeny little viewing window in the upper right HAND corner of my screen... So I can watch and work.

Now, on this here interweb, more and more folks have put cool teevee shows online that I'd ALSO like to watch whilst working. Trouble is, the best I can do is splitscreening my windows.... Which WORKS, just not as efficient.

Is there a way to - and I'm presuming this would be in Reg Editor - to have a pop-up window (or any app, for that matter) always be on top?Check this program out:

You may also want to check out the mini-wmp player. Right Click your TaskBar and go to Toolbars and click Windows Media Player.
Now play your movie and minimize WMP.

And thirdly, you may want to try VLC Media Player. It has a smaller interface, as WELL as a built-in 'always on top' function.Check out "Double Vision". It looks pretty nice. Works on web video and can be set transparent so you can see through it while its on top. Freeware ofcourse!
