How can I stop items piling up in playlist?

Postby throwaway_for_one_q » 31 Aug 2014 20:19

For example:

Playlist isn't open.

Play a music file.

Play another music file from a different folder.

Near the end of this song, hit loop.

1st song plays.

How can I stop this? I don't want things to pile up in there.

Thank you!

So far, you cannot. You should use loop-one.

I have the same issue and it is driving me mad!
After playing a video or 2 and then hitting the stop button, one of the previous videos starts immediately playing and then all the others follow with no way to stop this "looping" without opening and deleting the playlist that was automatically created. Also, the looping selection buttons are not graphically different enough and/or do not highlight as to the selection I have made. I do not like this fairly newly added looping function. Is my problem a playlist or looping problem?

Aw, that sucks, but thanks for clearing that up for us!
