When there's no necessary support for visualization in the backend, Analyzer widget should be hidden. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run Amarok 2.8 on Windows 2. 3. Actual Results: The Analyzer widget is visible by default. Expected Results: The Analyzer widget is hidden by default.
The super odd thing is that I cannot reproduce this issue on Linux. With Phonon-VLC the analyzer is not added automatically here.
Recently, when I did a complete reinstall of my Kubuntu (and hence Amarok) an "unknown widget" was being displayed whose "content could not be loaded" (or some similar string was being displayed).
@Vedant: That's unrelated, it was a bug in git master that I fixed one day later.

Don't add the analyzer applet when Phonon doesn't support it. Stupid... I forgot about that file.
