Well, that’s good. I didn’t think of that. If you use a script to “start” the player, with an incorrect filename in the “source” field, entered manually or by script, the player will play some other correct filename, and the result of the “start” command will be empty. In a more perfect world, the result of the start command might give the user a clue about what has gone wrong.
