Some songs have looong intros ... is it possible to skip those with CUE sheets

Original CUE sheet generated by ripping software

FILE "16. Puff Daddy & The Family - I'll Be Missing You (feat. Faith Evans & 112).flac" WAVE
  TRACK 16 AUDIO
    TITLE "I'll Be Missing You (feat. Faith Evans & 112)"
    PERFORMER "Puff Daddy & The Family"
    REM COMPOSER ""
    INDEX 01 00:00:00

tried
    INDEX 00 00:00:00
    INDEX 01 02:14:00

and
    INDEX 01 02:14:00

but that song keeps starting playing from beginning

What about setting [playback range] to start playing after intro? Or do you want to do it specifically with cue..

Thx for pointer ... I will try with [playback range]

though i was wondering if my understanding of CUE sheets is correct ... i thought tracks should start to play from INDEX 01 - unless I am truly misunderstanding this

I was hoping with CUE ... i can make this a solution that is independent of JRiver MC

[Doof]

They're 0-based so Index 00 is the first track at 00:00:00 and then Index 01 starts at track #2. But I think your issue is that it looks like your actual track is in its own file. Changing the cue file only works this way if you have the entire album as a single flac file as then the cue file is how MC knows where the track boundaries are. If each track is its own separate flac file, then updating the cue has no effect as MC isn't using it to determine which tracks are which, it just plays the single file.

All tracks start with INDEX 01 ... INDEX 00 is pregap ... while higher INDEX are like chapter (feature that is rarely used in CDs)

I used to rip in one large flac with CUE (seems like best way to ensure bitperfect) .. but then change all ripping to tracks with new corresponding CUE (better compatibility ... while combining separate tracks with CUEtools into single large file yields same bitperfect large file)

I think MC uses CUE even if that CUE points to multiple tracks (any changes i make to CUE are detected by MC)

I made some test with
    INDEX 00 00:00:00
    INDEX 01 02:14:00

Loaded CUE into VLC and foobar

foobar: starts track at 2:14:00 ... progress bar starts at 2:14:00 ... so there is no way to play pregap

VLC: starts track at 2:14:00 ... progress bar starts at 0:00:00 ... so if one wish - one can rewind to listen to pregap

Obviously ... i prefer VLC way

So its eigher VLC/foobar got it wrong ... or MC got it wrong

PS. [play range] in MC works ... but CUE "solution" is "universal" in that it works across other players
