[PD] using puredata to play playlist gapless

[Rick T]

Ok I'm still having issues I uploaded an image of the PD to see if
someone spots something off the bat
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/12/selection007p.png/
and I've attached a text file with the debugging stuff included I can
hear the sound when I click on the
[open /tmp/test/n000041test.wav(   message box

But I get no sound using the open panel to load the textfile
I've also attached the negplaylist.txt file and renamed everything
in-case I had some strange control character hiding in the file.

When I bang the [openpanel] object and clink on the [print(  message
box above the [textfile] I get this in the PD log

--------- textfile or qlist contents: -----------
 n000041test.wav \;
 \;
 n000042test.wav \;
 \;
 n000043test.wav \;
 \;
 n000044test.wav \;
 \;
 n000045test.wav \;
 \;
 n000046test.wav \;
 \;
 n000047test.wav \;
 \;
 n000048test.wav \;
 \;
 n000049test.wav \;
 \;
 n000050test.wav \;
 \;

Still trying to figure out why this won't play the files.
