Title: Seek does not work when playing last X seconds of a song
Post by: jaynyc on October 03, 2012, 06:46:45 pm

Hi.  If I play any track, I can always seek (ie: drag the slider around) for most of the song.  But when it gets near the end, all of a sudden seek no longer works.   The duration of time from the end differs from song to song.  If I had a song that was very short, it would be almost impossible to seek inside any of it.  What is the cause of this, what are the potential solutions?

Running MC17, via ASIO, ReplayGain on.


thanks

The program is actually a bit ahead of what it's showing you so that it can pre-buffer for gapless, cross-fading, etc.

This means there's a point of no return near the end of the track where it's actually moved to the next track.

You can shorten the pre-buffering size in Options > Audio, but it can't be completely removed.
