I have not looked at this too much, got my BS back from the shop yesterday.

   I dont mind the pauses in the studio recordings as someone pointed out.

But for the live albums, I am guessing that the programming in the BS is written to look for a certain amount of "quiet" and kicks in a pause at that point.

I dont believe this should be an option. I believe that the BS should play such media as it was orginally recorded.

Hi,

I am in full agreement with this.


The Book Sense firmware for the player does not have the right to change how the recordings were made.
There is no reason for it to insert a pause for any reason!
This is one that is a real no brainer when it comes to listening to live performances and audio books ripped from CD audio books.

This is one that the programmers at HIMS need to remove from the firmware, or, maybe put it into the playback options as a "add pause" or "do not add pause" option if they think it even needs to be there at all!

The pause between tracks may be fine for many albums, however there are many others that are intended to be heard continuously, even though the tracks may have separate titles. When I first mentioned this issue here, Raul mentioned Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon as a particular example where the pause between tracks diminishes the listening experience. I can think of many others, both in the classic rock genre as well as in several subgenres of electronic music where the pause between tracks negatively affects the listening experience. And, as I said, many albums were not intended to be heard with pauses between tracks; so the Book Sense should not be inserting one. Whether there is a pause between tracks is something that should be left up to the creators of the music. Any portable CD player can play a CD the way it was intended to be heard, that is, without pauses between tracks if that is the way its creator wanted it to be heard. The Book Sense should function the same way for albums that were ripped from CD's.

I like the pause between tracks although it has been awhile since I have played any music so I can't remember how long the pause is. I do like a pause between tracks.
