Ok, so if my understanding is correct, then foobar's gapless output is due to the presence of the LAME tag which defines the precise length of the last frame, yes?
I have an album of non-LAME mp3s which are meant to be played gaplessly. Is there any way to manually add a LAME tag to these files to accurately restore gapless output for foobar playback?
Thanks,
C

If they don't have the lame tag, they aren't meant to play gaplessly.. However, if you like, you can create a lame tag using the "fix mp3 header" (And I think you need to select "rebuild entire stream")
That should work.
Keep us informed.

Take a look at this thread about burning gapless mp3 albums.
It's for mp3s without LAME tags, and the procedure is pain in the ass. Maybe there are easier methods...
