Hi. I'm currently using this video player and have recently updated to the new version (1.1), but am running into some issues with it now that I have.

I originally updated because I was running into an issue with the unload command seemingly not actually unloading the videos, effectively creating a memory leak as videos slowly built up in memory. This seems to have been resolved in the newer version though, thankfully.

However - What I am running into now is an issue when I have 2 different videos I want to be playing and allow the player to cycle between them. I previously achieved this by allowing the player to choose choices that run the stop command for the current video and then the play command for the new video - and then vice versa to reverse return to the original one.

However - this no longer allows me to reverse the change - after I run a stop command - the original video is no longer playable. The play & resume commands both cannot play the video anymore. Even if I set "Auto Unload" to false, true OR blank - this remains the case. 

Additionally - If I use the Pause & Resume functions, only the most recently "loaded" video will show up, paused and covering the the other video, so that's also not a workable solution.

Currently the only method I have left working is to fully unload and then reload the video from memory every time it's going to be used, which is both a tonne of work AND a big issue for lower performance devices. I would appreciate if this could be helped with.

And.. thanks a tonne for making plugins like this in the first place - they're super useful!
