What I mean is:

• When a song is changed (or started/stopped), load a skin.
• Unload after 2 secs

I don't want a media player, I want to track media changes. Like this in Windows:

OK I understand now

I don't want a media player,

You can't create a media player in Rainmeter: https://forum.rainmeter.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=15957#p89343

• Unload after 2 secs

Install the attached skin and try it out, please. Is it looking as what you waited for?

When posted the skin, I forgot to mention some details:

• The skin is working with Windows Media Player. To change it to your player, replace the PlayerName variable into the [Variables] section, accordingly to the desired player.
• The Wait variable establish how long is the skin keep visible (in seconds). You can easily modify it if you want to keep it visible for more or less seconds.
• Note that when you don't see the skin, it is not unloaded, just hidden. It's much more simple, than unloading it.

...and the reason for the 2 x [!Refresh] is Spotify is buggy and does not seem to update the Play/Pause unless I have them there

Have you tried !UpdateMeasure on the NowPlaying "parent" measure (i.e. the one using an actual player name in the corresponding option)? Not sure this will make a difference in the case of Spotify, but personally I !UpdateMeasure each parent measure after I !CommandMeasure on them, in the case of audio related skins, in order to get them up to date with changes.

Obviously, you have to edit it as you want.
