I just noticed that although the default for a Player is to have Auto load in assist mode ON, the default setting for Auto load on demand (in automation mode) is OFF.
That seems inconsistent to me, and I think it’s different from previous versions/builds.
“Auto load on demand” refers to assist mode, and means that the player isn’t loaded until you send a START command. It’s perfectly ok that it’s disabled by default because most people won’t want it that way.
Player bei Bedarf automatisch laden (Standard: aus) Lädt den Player erst dann automatisch, wenn er benutzt wird, also zum Beispiel wenn er gestartet wird oder PFL aktiviert wird. Beachten Sie, dass es dabei zu Verzögerungen durch das Laden kommen kann.
You probably spotted the word “automatisch”, but that’s automatisch as in “auto-load”, not as in “automation”.
