Just for the record, I really miss the crossfading feature, While looking for solutions, I found another tools, aqualung, which has the feature of inserting no gaps between adjacent tracks. But it is no where close to crossfading. However, I think I'll keep it to replace audacious, because I just like its simplicity, and its even supporting some weird sound formats (that I have) like MOD Speex. -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

From the inet search I have an impression that audacious-crossfade has been a normal Debian package. True.

Why Debian doesn't have this package, since other distros like RedHat, Ubuntu, etc all have it. According to the last package maintainer audacious-crossfade is impossible to use reliably with audacious 1.5, so he requested it's removal[1] which actually happened on 12/13 May 2008. Thus, after all, audacious-crossfade was never part of a stable Debian release. I don't know what other distributions did to include this plugin. If they found a way and somebody transfers their solution to Debian the package might actually get resurrected. (NB: No, most probably I won't be available to sponsor this, even though I have once maintained that package myself.)
