Multi play ofVideoPlayer clones

I am trying to play a single video multiple times (for exemple each time a key is pressed) and at random <X;Y> positions…
That much I can do.

But
the new ofVideoPlayer clone must restart the video. and I realized that all ofVideoPlayer clones are playing each video at the same position. which means that even if I press keys with delay all videos will end simultaneously.

this is my code so far

ofApp.h

ofVideoPlayer mainPlayer;
vector<ofVideoPlayer> players;

ofApp.cpp

void ofApp::setup() {
    mainPlayer.load(dir.getPath(i));
    mainPlayer.setLoopState(OF_LOOP_NONE);
}

void ofApp::update(){
    int id = 0;
    for (auto &player : players) {
        if (player.isPlaying()) {
            player.update();
        } else {
            players.erase(players.begin()+id);
            id--;
        }
        id++;
    }
}

void ofApp::draw(){
    //Draw all players
    for (auto &player : players) {
        player.draw(randomX, randomX, width-randomW, height-randomH);
    }
}

void ofApp::keyPressed(int key){
    ofVideoPlayer playerClone;
    playerClone.setPlayer(player.getPlayer());
    //Also tried with same results : playerClone = player; 
    players[videoID].play();
    players.push_back(playerClone);
}

Thanks a lot for your help
Cheers
