I have a similar problem on an existing install where the tech changed the name and now player A is no longer usable via the control system. Changing it back didn¡¯t work. Is there a way to restore the functionality?
I¡¯ll try the name query suggested to see what it¡¯s called?

console into the MMS on port 5004 and send the command "BrowseInstances"
make sure the player you are working with is actually named "Player_A"
It is possible to change this name in the web ui under System/Streamers. Click the pencil, then click the output name field and modify.
you can also set the instance by sending a string to the hardware def or module "SetInstance Player_A" or whatever the instance name is
When sending strings to hardware def you need to prefix each string with "MMSProtocol:" ?I can't recall if you need to do that with old school module.?
hope this helps
