> Do you have code-level control over the decoder

We licenced the binary of X-Audio. Maybe we have some control over what we feed into it - I'm guessing that the silence is caused by partially filled blocks at the end of a track, which we may be able to process a little more intelligently. Mike..?

I hope so - half my music collection are mixed dance albums (and the occassional seemless Jarre album).
