Hi Neena,

I think this is what you mean.

Navigate to files.
Hold down select until the menu pops up.
Navigate down to follow playlist and click select.
Make sure it's on yes and click select.
Left arrow once to return to files.

This makes it so that when you stop playing a file or you check the
file name by clicking select, it puts you right on the file you were
playing.

I hope that's what you meant.

Regards,

Laz
