Double click on player\_mc and apply this action to the play button:

```php
onClipEvent(load){
	tellTarget ("../load") {
		gotoAndPlay("play");
	}
	tellTarget ("../") {
		gotoAndPlay("eqstart");
	}
	../:status = "play";
	gotoAndStop("on");
}

```

That’s how I got my flashtrak to automatically start after the song is loaded.

Thanks for the quick reply, you are the man!

however, the loop does start automatically but the play/stop button is still in the “play” mode when it should obviously be displaying the “stop” mode.

since I don’t want to redo all the customizing again, I’m wondering if you could please look at the source (I’ll attach it to this post) …I’m convinced it’s a minor adjustment.

Thanks again

Oh I’m sorry, I made a mistake in the code above, but apply this one to the button, it should work exactly how you want it. =)

```php
onClipEvent(load){
    tellTarget ("../load") {
        gotoAndPlay("play");
    }
    tellTarget ("../") {
        gotoAndPlay("eqstart");
    }
    ../:status = "play";
    this.gotoAndStop("on");
}

```
