Title: MC16 - 12 seconds gap between tracks - how to get rid of?
Post by: nixki on June 21, 2011, 09:49:22 pm

There are 6 days remaining of my 30 days trial.
I would use MC as a DLNA server to stream to a PS Audio Perfectwave DAC.
If I play an album, there is a 12 seconds gap between the tracks that I can't get rid of.
Settings are:
Audio:  Prebuffering (2), Play silence: None, Do not play silence, Use gapless for sequential album tracks

Is there another hidden setting that I keep missing?
When listening to a classical album, that gap is too much!

If I play the same files with squeezebox server streaming to a Transporter, no problems.

Is this the right place to get help?

Thanks.

Check the DLNA server options under Options->Media Network.  Click Add or configure DLNA servers...  Check and adjust the Audio conversion settings.

I changed from
Conversion: "Convert unsupported formats" to "Never convert"
Encoder: "Uncompressed - 24 bits" to "Uncompressed"

Did a full reboot, checked that the changes sticked and... same behavior: 12 seconds gap between the tracks of an album.  When playing random tracks, it's 15 seconds.

At the end of the track, the time counter backs a few seconds and then counts a few more seconds than te displayed time for a given track.

Any other idea?
