Just to confirm - i tried with firmware 35 with both wav and flac and the gap is still there with 48khz.

Oops - I didn't check the date on that message - also it looks like bug #128 applies to the original squeezebox so I guess the 2 problems are not related. I wonder if there is a status update on both. smts - have you experienced the lack of gapless on your 48khz dvd rips too?

smst Wrote: I haven't tried it actually -- the only DVD rips I have as FLAC are discrete songs anyway. I'll try it out with concert footage if I can find the time; you're just grabbing the stereo, not the 5.1 mix, right? Well I've actually tried ripping a 5.1 mix to seperate ac3 files then converting it to wav using your your utility (thanks btw) then encoding the files to flac and tagging them. The resulting files are 16bit 48khz flac files which playback fine in full surround sound except for the small but noticable gap between tracks that should be seamless. At first i though this was a problem because of the DD encoding but by coincidence i've got some other 48khz 16 bit files from a live recording that hasn't been anywhere near 5.1 dolby digital and they playback fine except for the gap which is exactly the same sort of gap as i get with the 5.1 files. So I concluded that the problem is with 48khz files rather than the DD 5.1 encoding. It's bug #2990 if you want to vote for it ;-) let us know how you get on either with stereo or 5.1 48Khz rips. It would be very nice to have this fixed as a lot of DVD based music is of live recordings that benifit from gapless playback It's as near as damnit already but this would pretty much make the SB2 perfect in my book! -- chrisal chrisal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=235 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=6405 ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] 48Khz flac files not playing back gapless
Hi, I've created a new bug for 48Khz flac files not playing back gapless and I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem. I first noticed after ripping some Dolby digital 5.1 off a dvd as per this thread:- http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19260 But I've also got a vanilla 2 channel stereo live recording that exhibits the same problem. I can't playback the DD5.1 files on the pc but the stereo recording definitely plays back gapless in winamp.

[slim] Re: Surround WAV's
Right Then - I had to go round the houses but I've now got my Dolby Digital 5.1 copy of With Teeth by the Nine Inch Nails playing in surround sound on the squeezebox2. Here's how:- I used this tool to extract the 6 seperate wav files directly off the DVD AC3 stream: http://www.download.com/3001-2140_4-10425021.html?idl=n Then I used surcode DTS-CD to create a DTS encoded wav file from the six seperate wav files. Then you can simply play this using the squeezebox 2 and provided the optical output is connected to a DTS receiver/amp then hey presto - surround sound playback! Awesome! I know this has been covered in a few threads before but I've not seen it explained step by step in the forums. Does anyone know if it is possible to make and plaback a native Dolby Digital 5.1 wav file in this way or is this the only method of surround sound playback on the SB2? Even if this is the only way I'm still chuffed that I can rip those 5.1 albums in this way... The next step is to make a cue sheet for the wav file so I can display the track names etc -- chrisal ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Re: SB2 - It Does The Business!
Hello, The SB2 looks great and with the positive feedback it looks like it's finally time to replace the old Rio Receiver. One question though - does native flac playback fully gapless on the SB2 for dance mixes, live stuff etc. -- chrisal ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
