OGG Gapless Play

Hi,

OGG supports gapless play between tracks that fit seamlessly together (such as a danceclub mix) by design as part of the OGG specification.  Unfortunately I get a small gap between such OGGs (they are tagged with an OGG specification tagger - tOGGer) and neither Winamp nor CoolPlayer have any problems with seamless gapless play.  When is this going to get fixed?

Other than that, this is one terrific player and the sound quality surpasses those players mentioned above quite handily.

I have this same thing happen.  It would be nice to have seamless (since I sometimes listen to albums with XMPlay after ripping them).

I support the request.

I think the only gap is the loading time, so on modes when a next track is not the same track and the next track is the playlist-next (random play is off), and both tracks are native stream (of the same type), but not radio, it could start precaching the next track.

Obviously, MP3 will have gaps, no matter what you do, because they suck :P  But Ogg, that'll be a nice feature (and I'll be able to listen to my Higher Circles soundtrack finally!).
