I have a quick question about something stupid...
I have a flash music player. Well, whenever I want to add music to my list. I have to upload music to my server and then modify the playlist.xml file. I have a basic understanding of it.. I know that the flash file gets the information that it needs from the .xml file. It plays the music fine whenever it finally shows up in the list, but I was wondering why it would take around 30-40 mins for the changes to take effect.
I'll rep anyone that can help.. or atleast explain it to me. :blah:

I've tried that several times. When you click on the link, whats the first song? 9 crimes? I can go in there, delete the .swf file and re-upload it and it's the same. I don't understand how it can be doing this. I can see the songs on my server.. I can listen to them, it just takes the damn .swf file so long to get the info from the .xml file.
