It's not a bug, it's simply not supported. and it might as well never
become supported, sorry (OK, I've said the same about Replay Gain and
that's here, now, so take it with a grain of salt).

The problem with Crossfade is that at least the way the Squeezeboxes do
it it requires you to fiddle with the audio data (apply a volume level
to the data itself by changing the very bits you play). iPeng, however,
doesn't do that which means that on output devices supporting
independent volume control you still get bit-perfect output. Even with
Replay Gain enabled!

But to add Crossfade the way iPeng handles volumes would add a huge
amount of work, we'd have to duplicate the audio unit chain and would
still lose the bit-perfectness.

Oh... And then there is that other problem: there is really no
specification anywhere that I found that would specify what exactly the
Squeezebox Crossfade does so I would have to reverse engineer that or
find it in the SqueezePlay code or it would end up with so ring
different than in the SB.

So to cut a long story short: there is currently no plan to support it,
sorry.
