My video file player of choice is Windows Media Player 6 (currently 6.4.09.1121).

Ever since WMP7 came out, I've just wanted a few things from 6.

One thing is to be able to use a playlist. I have a lot of music videos and it would be nice to just load a bunch of them up and play them. Is there any way to do that in 6? If not, what are the "previous" and "next" buttons for?

The other problem I have with the program is that the search buttons are always grayed out. Why? I can load any file into ATI's file player, and I can fast forward and rewind through all of them, and skip between them.

Thanks for your help. Of course, even if I can't do these things with WMP6, there's still no way I'm going to use the latter, bloated versions.
