Gapless Playback
With gapless playback, audio tracks are played without a pause between them. The Ultimate
HD Media Player plays music albums gaplessly if you press
Play
to play the album
tracks in order, either from the music category browse or live folder browse modes. If you
queue multiple albums, each album plays gaplessly with a delay between albums. Note that
there is a short delay when gapless playback starts while the album tracks are analyzed.
Also, all tracks in the album must use the same audio codec, and the metadata must indicate
that the tracks are from the same album. When an album is playing gaplessly, the elapsed
time and duration shown on the progress bar indicate times for the full album. The elapsed
time in the current track is shown in smaller text. To enable or disable gapless playback,
select
Settings > Audio/Video > Audio
. Gapless music playback is supported for MP3,
M4A, and FLAC media.
