[Youtube] Play {video name} doesn't start the action

After setting everything up in P2R and asking google to play a song P2R receives the pushbullet request, but after that it also sends a string that tells me that it failed to open the browser and play the specified song/video

Is there anything i'm doing wrong here?

Also another Question,

I'm using potPlayer as default media, is there any way i could play, pause, next, previous through P2R?

I myself have been looking for scripts to do so but couldn't find anything.

works for me, my default browser is chrome - what is yours?

also if chrome is not your default, but you have it installed - this works to:

Open:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

Start directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application

Parameters:

what happens if you right click on the entry in the main window, click 'run', and the type:
baby shark
and click the 'Ok' button?

It gives me the string that says that it ran the command but failed.
