At the file handling page (admin/settings/swftools/handling), when SWF Tools cannot find a selected third party player at the expected (partly non-configurable) location (e.g. for 1pixelout this is /sites/all/modules/swftools/shared/1pixelout/player.swf) it prints the message "Missing".

IMO it would be a big usability improvement to add the expected path + filename to this message. This very small patch gives an example on this could be done.

Good idea - simple, neat, and makes use of data that the module already knows about. Getting players in the right place does seem to confuse people. I'll roll this in to the next update.

Thanks for the suggestion!

I like how you are expanding on this by setting a form error. Thanks for getting this in!
