Bug Description
It is in no way clear that Audience, the included Video player queues new files, so If I'm playing a video and open another it is silently added to the queue and nothing will change until the current video ends or the skip button in pressed.
The queue is hidden away and not obvious. I just assumed Audience was bugged the first time.
Not good.
By default either a new instance should open, or the new file opens in the existing intance right away. I believe VLC works this way, and you can enable the queue system if you wish in the settings.

Gonna mark this as fix released since we now flash the playlist icon when a new item is queued
