    Standalone Touch gives timing errors with CUE

    After the last update 7.5.4 r9408 (or maybe the one before - I can't remember) my Touch started having issues with single FLAC+CUE albums. The timings seem to be wrong.

    For example, if I start to play track 01 it will start to play absolutely fine, but then before the track has finished playing (when it still has several seconds to go) the display will change to track 02 and there will be an audible glitch like it's skipping a fraction of a second of the music, but it does then finish playing track 1. This continues with each new track and the timings get further out as the album plays. The display always changes early and is accompanied by an audible glitch. Also, if I navigate to a track within the album it starts playback from the last several seconds (or longer) of the previous track. Clearly the cue timings are not working correctly.

    There are no issues for me with albums split to separate FLACs.

    Has anyone else experienced this?

    Just me then? No one else has experienced this? I find that impossible to believe...

    Vast majority? Assuming that's even true, I guess that because only a minority use cuesheets, it's just another inconvenient bug to ignore then. No problem, I'm in the middle of splitting everything I have (where necessary) to individual tracks.

    Move along, nothing to see here!

    Of course it's true. Cuesheets are an anachronistic hangover from an earlier time when:
    1) gapless playback was not perfect
    2) people liked to burnd CDR's

    I'm pretty certain that a straw poll would agree that cuesheets are not in widespread usage.
