REPEAT Element

The REPEAT element defines the number of times Windows Media Player repeats one or more ENTRY or ENTRYREF elements.

Syntax

  <REPEAT
   COUNT = "integer"
>
</REPEAT>

Attributes

COUNT

Integer representing the number of times Windows Media Player repeats the ENTRY and ENTRYREF elements within this element's scope.

Parent/Child Elements

Hierarchy Elements
Parent elements ASX
Child elements ENTRY, ENTRYREF

Remarks

This element defines the number of times Windows Media Player repeats, or loops through, the clips defined by the ENTRY and ENTRYREF elements within this element's scope. Only the first REPEAT element in a metafile is valid; subsequent REPEAT elements are ignored.

If no COUNT attribute is defined, the content in the associated ENTRY and ENTRYREF elements repeats an infinite number of times. A value of zero causes Windows Media Player to ignore the REPEAT element and play the content once.

Example Code

<ASX VERSION="3.0">
   <ENTRY>
        <REF HREF="mms://example.microsoft.com/clip1.asf" />
<!-- This clip plays once. -->
   </ENTRY>

   <REPEAT COUNT="2">
      <ENTRY>
     <REF HREF="mms://example.microsoft.com/clip2.asf" />
     <REF HREF="mms://example.microsoft.com/clip3.asf" />
 <!-- These clips play twice. -->
      </ENTRY>
   </REPEAT>
</ASX>

Requirements

Windows Media Player version 7.0 or later.
