OK, from my experience with gapless: Native formats: WAV/PCM works fine MP3 won't - even if you use a recent LAME version to add the gapless tags the MP3 decoder on SB2 ignores them FLAC is basically fine, but there is a currently outstanding bug which spoils some transitions. I expect it to be fixed soon though :)
Transcoding: I've tried transcoding FLAC & Vorbis to WAV/PCM and it works perfectly. Transcoding Vorbis to FLAC seems to work as well. Transcoding anything to MP3 won't work (see above). I haven't tried transcoding MP3 to anything - it may work as it's LAME doing the decoding. So, if you have MP3s now, you might have luck transcoding to PCM or FLAC, but I don't have any suitable files to test with - it also won't work unless your files were ripped properly with a recent LAME version. If you're going to rerip, pick a format which actually supports gapless, like FLAC or Vorbis. > Even the almighty iPod can't do it. And heaven help you if you mention it on ipodlounge. That's why my money goes to Slim and Rio (RIP) - they make players which actually work properly. -- radish _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
