I downloaded this MP3 player last year from somewhere that I can’t remember and I want to get the songs to keep playing through the playlist and not stop after every song as it is doing now.

I’ve been looking at the code for hours and can’t figure out what to do - The next and previous buttons work fine and cycle through my XML playlist perfectly - The problem is that it stops at the end of the whatever track it is playing - Any ideas??

```
 ActionScript Code:

```
