I've never seen that error, so I don't know.  I would image that if it's low on free memory that could do it.

Re: failed to create media player error came

Now I can say I've seen this error.  It was after I was doing a lot of graphics stuff, so probably some kind of memory problem.  I just restarted my Ultra and I haven't seen it again, yet...

Re: failed to create media player error came

Maybe it's a memory-related issue.
