Continuous Play of Playlist for Winamp2.8

suzbalfore · 31st May 2002, 15:36

Ugh! I'm frustrated!

I have used Winamp for quite some time now. Just recently I rebuilt my computer and reinstalled Winamp to my clean system. The problem I'm having is that even though I've loaded a full playlist, Winamp will only play one song at a time.

It won't automatically go to the next song in the list once it's finished playing the current selection.

This means me having to stop what I'm doing, go back to the playlist and click on the next selection.

The last version of Winamp that I had never had a problem with that. If you had more than one song in the playlist, it would play one song and then advance automatically onto the next.

Is there anyway I can do that with my current Winamp player?

Thanks much!

CTRL+P>preferences > Options > Uncheck the "manual playlist advance" box.

Thank you!!! I knew it was something simple but no matter HOW many times I looked I couldn't seem to find that option.

Thanks again!

I have the same problem, but I've already looked at that box, checked it, gone back, came back and re-unchecked it and it still won't advance. It shows the little stop icon by the time and the equalizer pans back and forth and if i'd use a different application with sound, it will interfere cause winamp is still using audio resources (my sound car only plays one stream at a time)
