Virtually all the music I buy now comes in the form of downloaded flac files. These have no cue sheets with them.
Some of the music needs to be played gaplessly, and I'm under the impression that flac files + cue sheets is a solution to this. If this is so, can anyone recommend a linux program that would enable me to generate cue sheets from the flac files on my hard disk? I have seen software that creates cue files from music on a CD, but I can't find anything that does it from a folder of flac files on the hard disk. |

When i read the thread at CA that jimH linked to it seems the people over there also only were able to play gapless with Airplay.
My theory is that With Airplay you push a stream from the Airplay application to the player and Airplay creates a gapless stream at that. If acting as DLNA the player requests music at the DLNA server. If the player has no way to tell the server what song is played next on the list the server has this little timeout during track changes. I guess there are better DLNA player implementations that create themself some kind of buffer to work around this. This may be the limitation of this Chipset the reviewer talks about. |
