command line for looping in WMP

[dco]

I burned a VCD using Windows Media Player to play it. I wanted it to autorun (i did it) and play continuously. Looking at the WMP command lines, I found no one that enabled that feature to be set previously. Is there any way to do it? What I am doing is printing some instructions explaining how my client can set WMP to do it by himself.

Thanks for any help on that.

Why dont use use ASX file?
and at your autorun file something like:

[autorun]
open=mplayer2.exe /play vcd_playlist.asx

Look at web for some ASX sample

Does it make a difference, whether my file is a MPEG-1 file or an ASX? I, for one, prefer to use the former due to the better quality. And since WMP plays MPEGs as well...

Perhaps I shouldn´t use the /close command line. Now you mentioned that, I remebered I included it. Yet I wonder if it will keep on playing continuously or just stop by the end of the clip.

ASX is a playlist file, you can put information about MPEG clip, and it will play continuous (like a playlist)
