Hi Jon,
No, it's not a bug.
As a player is designed to play movies, then it stops when it is hidden.
It's a normal behaviour: there is nothing to watch :-)
So, instead of making your player invisible, let it visible but put
it out of the card window area: set the bottomRight of player
"MyPlayer" to "-1,-1".
Note that you can put any object out of range of the user's action by
placing it out of the card window without having to set its visible
to false.
It's a very old handy trick :-)
Best regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.
