[ error ] bool ofxOMXPlayerEngine::openPlayer(int): Opened video FAIL

[rihani]

not sure why this is happening, please help.

I get the following error when trying to re-play the youtube stream after stopping it. see error code below and also code i am using. note that i do not have any issues playing the file the first time. i think i need to close the player properly but don't think omxPlayer.close(); is doing much.

Code:

void ofApp::setup()

      ofSetLogLevel(OF_LOG_VERBOSE);

    udpConnectionRx.Bind(8000); //incomming data on my port # ...  
    udpConnectionRx.SetNonBlocking(true);   
}

    if(rxMessage!=""){  
        cout<<"udpMessage-"<<udpMessage<<"-"<<endl;  
        rxMessage = udpMessage;  

        if(rxMessage=="play"){
