Hey Campbell,
well with this commit you undo my fix for a very common case. :)
I see that my solution didn't worked for when the player was in users  
$PATH so it's good you fixed that, but your solution doesn't work when 
you don't have a  player in $PATH and the user pref field is empty too.

Bottom line: After your commit a user (again) does not get an error when 
he starts Blender and calls the operator (here on Windows, with no 
Blender in $PATH).  He instead wonders why nothing happens.
Which is excactly what I wanted to avoid/fix! ;-)

Best regards,
Thomas
