Well, I've now realised that there could be small gaps between tracks by virtue of the way mp3 works. There are no gaps in the actual output due to switching tracks but the decoder may output some silence during the switch.

Then the obvious questions are:

- Do you have code-level control over the decoder, or have you just licensed the binaries (i.e., is it something that you could even fix at all)?

- If you could fix it, would you want to?

- Do you have any test files to compare? I can manufacture you a few small gapless file sets for testing purposes if necessary. And, of course, unit test any new player builds against my Pink Floyd collection.

I know that gapless output is possible with MP3 because I'm doing it on my PC with the WinAmp gapless output plug-in (and some carefully edited MP3 files)...
