New Player does not have Mux capability or Key Change for Videos but has been set for Vocals off as default. Video should be showing in both preview and singer's display.
Old player does have Mux capability and Key Change for Videos. Videos only show on singer's display. Some have had it show only on the preview instead.

If you have vocals on the new player then there is no way to turn it off. They reset it turn default to one of the audio channels (don't remember which one) and it is the one used by most karaoke videos (VCD, etc,). You may have one that is the opposite channel.

Not sure we are using the same terminology for the displays. In your first post you said you had video only in the "preview (audience) screen. This is confusing me because what we refer to as the preview is the small screen in the Hoster main window. The audience screen to me would be the singer's display. So where exactly are you seeing the video using the Old Player?
I don't use any videos so I am only passing on why I know is supposed to be.

4.06 is great, just got done doing a mocked-up show from the time i upgraded till now 1:50 am no problems, ( except for the videos ), but i think i will just have to downgrade to 4.05 where i could used some of my vcd's w/o clicking back & forth to new/old player..

That is what it is supposed to do. The whole reason for the new video player was the request by some that they wanted to see the video in the Hoster program/DJ area. That is what we call the preview window.

The old player does not show anything on the DJ preview area but allows more control of the video file. Mux and key change.
