Oh, not at all. No offense taken in the least.

Your English is excellent, and much better than my French. I don't know 
any French. :)

There is nothing to excuse. You haven't done anything wrong at all.

I just did a test too. I set a player to the filepath of an mp3 file and 
hid the player. In Revolution, starting the player shows it again! I 
couldn't make the player start and remain hidden.

Then I did the same thing in MetaCard. Here, I can keep the player 
hidden and it does play. These tests are all on Mac OS X.

So it looks like the difference is in the IDE. Rev does not allow me to 
start a hidden player. Possibly this is to prevent the Windows bug from 
occuring. MetaCard does play correctly with the player hidden.
