* It is also used as a means for communication between multiple instances of the Dash Media Player
* on the page. This allows you to separate the Playlist and the actual
* player on the page, but yet have them behave as a single player. For more information on how you can
* integrate this great feature on your website, visit http://www.tmtdigital.com/remoteplaylist
