Description: This is really a (semi-working) proof of concept. I have found that a vast majority of karamba players related to amarok will not work with KDE 4 due to a lack of dcop.
With this theme I have simply replaced the dcop commands with similar dbus equivalents. There are few issues though. I'm not for certain how to control internet services like Last.FM efficiently. However, it can do Next, Prev, Stop, Play, and Pause. If you can do this or know how with d-bus and amarok please post.
This theme can also be used with Plasma by importing it as a superkaramba themeLast changelog:

I update it every few days with whatever new stuff I've learned.
I'm not sure, I haven't looked at your app. Most players use the "Media Player Remote Interfacing Specification"

you can also use qdbus as a guide and learning tool.

I modified I LOVE MUSIC to add progressive search (it's in the plasmoids section), but it still uses dcop. Would it be possible to do the same with dbus? The progressive search really is a handy feature.
