In reply to:
when selecting a playlist such as supertramp, i would assume that it should play each of the three albums i have in the order i've specified in emplode. what ends up happening is that it just stops at the end of the 1st album (in playlist) and displays 'end of playlist.' what am i doing wrong?
You selected it by pressing Down or Menu on the little triangle, right? Check in (J)Emplode that you've not set the playlist to "play [1] item(s) from playlist".

secondly, if i select the supertramp playlist for example - and i select a specific track to listen to it finishes playing that song and then displays 'end of playlist' rather than playing back the next song and so on? what am i missing here?
Why did you expect it to play another track? You select one track, it plays one track. That's how it's supposed to work. If you want to play more, either add them with the Enqueue function (requires 2.0b13), or create a playlist.
