Hi, the piece I'm currently working on will not play back past a certain measure (167) in the piece. The playback always stops at that certain point, regardless of me deleting measures before or after it, and if I try to start playback from a spot later in the piece, it will instead jump back to the beginning and play from there. What can I do to resolve this? I am using NotePerformer if that helps.
Thanks!

You have obviously got a broken repeat structure. Without seeing the file I can't tell you more.

Here is the zipped file:
Very confused as I don't have any repeats in that section of the piece, and never did for that matter. It just sort of... started happening while working and hasn't resolved itself. Hopefully the file will give you some more info. Thanks

Hey Mike,
If this is helpful at all, I have also discovered that if I delete the music from measures 166 to the end (without removing the measures entirely), it will play through the empty bars, but if I completely delete the specific problem measure (167), or delete only the music on that measure, playback will simply stop on the following measure instead of playing through. Just thought that was curious.
