Maybe the DC Player is just not well understood or described. There's
precious little in the docs about it.
I found, e.g., that if I copy the Player and put it into a folder

For my money, what it should do is present a dialog with two buttons

You can also just drag a .rev stack o

I feel the same way you do: RunRev *could* charge a LOT more for this
