Same problem as reported in Dec 2014 by Mike Lee - playing a playlist. Axel Schneider suggested a “little trick with a countup” and included a download which has disappeared.

Could anyone please help?

Found the answer.  
In the Timer Action event:

```auto
me.Mode = 0
If Playing = False
...play player...
Playing = True
me.Mode = 1
End If

```

In the PlaybackStopped event

```auto
Playing = False
Timer.Mode = 1

```

Glad you found an answer.  
I admit I didn’t understood your original question (what you referred to).
