In that case you haven't avoided the gap: you've simply filled it with a
fragment of another track. Not really a solution, unless you plan to always
play back the tracks in the same order. But then, why split them into
separate tracks at all? :)
I think the cleanest solution would be a small addition to ID3, with coder
delay and original track length stored along with the other info. The delay
could be defined as (say) total delay of encoder + dist10 decoder, which
should be unambiguous and easy to calibrate against.
