Hi

I pretty sure these are bugs in the new player introduced in LiveCode 6.7.

Thanks Jacqueline for the info about the result that should be returned when
a player is set to an incorrect path.  Didn't know that.  However it does
not work in LiveCode 6.7.1-rc4

I have posted a bug report for that.
[[Player]] does not return correct result when setting player filename to
invalid path or corrupt movie

Also Timothy I noticed something odd with players retaining videos that
should have been closed.   Your message helped me realize what was
happening.  I have reported a bug for this as well.   You can try the sample
stack I uploaded and see if you get the same results to confirm this is the
same issue you are seeing.

The really odd thing with this one is that it retains the old video even
after you set the filename of the player to empty and there is no video
visible.  After that setting to an invalid video redisplays the video that
was previously loaded in the player.
