Hi, In liquidsoap a new track can start without a metadata packet attached to it. Conversely, a metadata packet may occur in the middle of the track.
Encoded outputs treat metadata and tracks according to what their codecs allow. For example, in Ogg it's impossible to insert metadata without starting a new track. But I don't think that any output drops empty metadata packets. However, and this is probably what's happening to you, map_metadata has an "insert_missing" parameter, set to true by default, which inserts empty metadata at beginnings of tracks that do not have metadata. The idea was to hide this surprising case, so that people can edit metadata at the beginning of tracks even if there is none. In short, you may be able to solve you problem by passing insert_missing=false to your map_metadata. Now, I still don't get why you end up with a new track without metadata. In my (simple) test I don't see anything like that.
