using foo_runcmd component to start automatically with a given playlist

Hello
I would like automatically start on a given playlist named web_radios.fpl) when foobar2000 is started.
I have added the following to the foobar2000.exe  /runcmd= "Switch to playlist/web_radios.fpl" /runcmd="Playback/play"
However it keeps starting on the playlist that was played when foobar was closed.
What did I miss?

foo_runcmd only works with fixed name main menu items. Playlist names are dynamically generated and not supported.

You can try my foo_run_main component. It supports dynamic menu items, link in sig.

edit: it requires fb2k v2.

For the stable version 1.6.x, not a v2 beta... ::)

You may also set a startup playlist using Playlist Manager (my sig).

And this only works for the last played playlist -on previous session- (as far as I know):
