Slight pause between tracks

[Jason]

MP3 is not gapless, if you desire gapless you should use FLAC

Subject: [slim] Slight pause between tracks

Greetings again
Having just ripped a compilation CD to MP3 and playing back via the
Squeezebox I have noticed a very slight "gap" between tracks that is not
there on the CD. Is there a way to alter this gap to become non-existent or
is it just a technical caveat of streaming??

Also, I have been reading all the digests and was (a little!) upset that
no-one had given me any feedback on my last query. :( I know that us newbies
may present some basic problems and questions to you, our learned friends,
but does anyone have a thought on this one??

Hi all
Still enjoying a fantastic experience with my new squeezebox (haven't had
the courage to upgrade to latest server/firmware as I am having NO major
problems with current setup - I know I am missing out on the full potential
of the graphic display but I'll wait just a bit longer!) My only difficulty
is with itunes playlists containing Internet Radio stations. ShoutCAST can
play all them fine, but if I drag and drop a station into a playlist in
itunes then select it via the squeezbox - it says it is connecting, then
nothing, returns to now playing screen!! I have found that the slimserver
listing for this "playlist version" has the following entry:

http://http://ipaddressofstation

I thought it was the double "http://" that was confusing matters so edited
the URL in itunes so that it didn't have a "http://" in front of the ip
address. Of course this meant that itunes can't now play that station,
checking the entry in the slimserver I now see this:

http://ipaddressofstation

BUT it still won't play on the squeezebox.

So, should slimserver be adding the extra http:// entry in front of an
existing one, or am I doing something else wrong?

I can still use ShoutCAST, no problem, but the ability to put my own radio
stations in playlist I feel speeds up the process of locating my favourite
stations!

Any help appreciated.
BTW I am a digester, so replies will be delayed, thanks

Nic

Hmm?
I have lots of music in mp3-format with no gap...
Is my system corrupted? Can I fix it? ;o)

I have a fast server and a fast network. Maybe that is why
I dont hear this gap you are talkng about.
