- I had a quick look around and I haven't found any articles or videos where the 9900 has music playing and it goes to another track.
Currently I have OS5 still and considering the new 9900 as long as my fingers aren't too big for the keyboard, but does anyone know if there are any gaps when one track ends and another begins?05-15-11 08:16 AMLike 0 - For true gapless playback of compressed audio files (MP3s, OGG Vorbis, etc...), I think the media player requires CUE sheet support. No matter how fast the processor is, there may still be tiny gaps between each track without the information from the CUE sheet file that stipulates how long the track is down to the nanosecond.
Now, it has been a while since I last looked into this, so I could be wrong.

It's gotten a lot better though. The gap is much smaller than before on OS5. However, it can be very bothersome to have any gap at all, especially with some songs fading into another on a lot of albums.

It's too bad MP3s aren't natively gapless, with it obviously being the most pervasive codec out there. Another issue is that OGGs are known to drain the battery faster than MP3s on MP3 players. I'm assuming the same is true for phones.05-17-11 02:20 AMLike 0
