Wondering if anyone can help. I'm setting up task scheduler to play a file in windows media player. Does anyone know the command line flag to repeat play the file continuously? I'm experimenting on this with XP, but ultimately need to be able to do this in Vista.

AT is your friend

So if the file is 1 minute long you can do at /every 1 minute "command to run what you want"

Can you just play the file in continous loop mode in your media player though?

I'd forgotten about the lovely AT command! Cheers! I was going to put it through media player, but it's not playing ball unless I physically select repeat play. I've got a couple of other sound utilities to try it out on. If all else fails, I'll write a batch script with lots of at commands in it.

Found out last night that opening a file in media player on vista automatically repeats the file until you press stop! So I've set it up in task scheduler instead of writing a batch file.
