look at the mp3 player while its playing music on the main music screen, press the big button in the middle, it should stop(you know, pause)
ps i assume you already figured this out.
I know this is going to make you laugh or cry, but I just went thru' whole Samsung YP-RO mp3 player manual and nowhere does it tell you how to STOP music playing ! I've tried every menu, every button, every press of the selection button - no go, nada. I'm reduced to turning the damn thing off in order to stop the music! On my last player it has an "exit" field in the music menu; I get back to the main menu but the music's still playing, even if I select another function.
Any samsung users out there?
