Hi Kevin, Thanks for the information. I had been following your thread.
I needed a quick fix for the playlist-sequence problem, so I eliminated the sequence. All of my shows are pre-loaded in the wee hours of each day, so it was easier to dump the sequence for the three shows affected. However, I may still use merge_tracks once it's fixed, but unfortunately I'm stuck with LS 1.0.0 FreeBSD version until the newer version (with bug fixed) becomes available. Best of luck with your new radio application!
