I’m by no means up on my AS at all and this MP3 player i’ve had for a while and just readjusted to suit my needs.

One thing i really want to change is the fact the music starts automatically. I changed line 38 from True to False which does indeed stop the music playing on load but instead i get “Loading” and it doesn’t do anything after that. Hitting play won’t work.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated. Thanks
