Useful tip, but I think it's still a bit pants. The guys that write
WinAmp eliminated the 'gap' on their MP3 playback way back in 2000 by
pre-caching it and starting the next song just as the last one
stopped - thus any overhead from the codec starting again on a new
song was cut down to an absolute minimum. That said it didn't always
work and some songes overlapped by a few 10th of a second - which is
almost as annoying :o). It is very hard to eliminate, because, I
assume, the format, complexity and waveform of the opening part of
the song varies so the codec probably takes fractionally different
times to get going. I've manage to tune my iTunes settings to
eliminate it a bit using the cross-fader but the settings on that
aren't accurate enough to allow it to be anything other than a
rudimentary fix.
