Playlist help, Song repeating Options

[LoveChild420]

Hello hello! I just wondered if anyone could help me fix my playlist.. I have it set to randomly play a song instead of playing the first song on the list. The problem, however, is that when that song finishes it just repeats..is there a way to make it advance to the next song or does the person always need to choose a song to listen to? .. if that makes sense LoL

I don't think you can make the playlist automatically go on to the next song... The code doesn't have that option so unless your a pro a coding then i don't think you can for this code... cause the only 2 options in the code that i see is is 1. To play the first song in the playlist 2. To play any song at random.
