Not a bug, fortunately just normal behavior: the visible of a player  
has to be true to work (QT "monitoring issue").
Happy you found a solution by yourself :-)
You have other solutions (just for fun)as: set the rect of the player  
to 0,-1,0,-1 :-)
On the other hand, note that if you embed the player into a hidden  
group (just an idea), it will appear when starting!
