I revised the entry for ‘play’ in the dictionary some weeks ago, but it was added to the 9.0 build, rather than the 8.x build, for some reason. So you’ll see the changes if you launch the dictionary in 9.x. The limitations as to which audio and video formats can be played are documented in the audioClip and videoClip dictionary entries. I included a note referencing that in the entry for play.
