issue with "ITEM" event immediately after playlist load

[jeroen]

I have an issue in IE with a simple player loading in a playlist and auto starting the first item in the list through code. I know I could set the player to autostart in the BOTR control panel. But I wish to do this through code, as I won't ALWAYS want to either have a player auto start, or manual start for all my videos that use that player (I might wish to start the playlist at a random video for instance).

Anyway, the core problem is that it all works fine in Firefox, but IE does not like it at all for some reason, and refuses to auto start. If you take a look at the HTML and JS code, it is quite simple but do you know why it is not working in IE?

Confirmed; the issue also pops up in Safari:

TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
	at com.jeroenwijering.plugins::Playlist/itemHandler()
	at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
	at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEvent()
	at com.jeroenwijering.player::Controller/sendEvent()
	at com.jeroenwijering.player::Controller/playItem()
	at com.jeroenwijering.player::Controller/itemHandler()
	at flash.events::EventDispatcher/dispatchEventFunction()
	...

Fixed further up the stack by letting the Controller verify that ITEM is actually in the playlist.
