Stupid VLC Question
-
VLC media player works fine for me, but somehow I have reset something and I have not been able to find out how to undo whatever I did. Please help.
On audio files, when I have a number from one album of .mp3 format tracks from an album, or files in any other audio format for that matter, MY idea is to play the whole set, one after another. But what happens is that while I can see all the tracks added to the playlist, I can only play one at a time. Each one then repeats and repeats until I manually move to the next file.
This is new and hateful and there must be some totally obvious and instantly easy fix, but I have now given up and come here to beg for guidance.
If I click on a variety of files all at once, instead of adding them all to a single playlist, each one opens in a new open VLC media player and then all play at once. Yay!
I like being able to have more than one version open at a time because then I can, for example, switch from watching a video to listening to music while I do other things, like write posts like this one, surf the Net, and so on. And then I can switch back without having to reload and start over or relocate my preferred access point to continue.
But how do I just tell the thing to play each item on the list, one after the other, the way it always used to do? Grrr.

Did you accidently click the "repeat" button? It has repeat all and repeat 1, it toggles between those and off when you click it. It'll have a small (blue I think.) 1 over it if it's on repeat.

The repeat buttons are at the bottom left on my version, they are the sort of crossed ones in this pic
