No gapless playback of MP3 files
From larskinn on June 04, 2010 12:20:36
What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Rip a CD where there is no pause in sound between tracks to FLAC 2. Convert FLAC files to MP3 using LAME 3. Test playback of two sequential tracks, using both FLAC and MP3 files What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect both file types to be played back without gaps between tracks. The FLAC files are played back correctly, but the MP3 files get a short yet audible pause inserted between tracks. The same MP3s are played back gaplessly in iTunes. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Tested on Clementine versions 0.3.0, 0.3.1 and 0.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.6.3

Update: I've tested 0.4, 0.4.1, 0.4.2 and r1576 . Gapless for MP3s is still not working, despite the changelog for 0.4 stating "Gapless playback should now work all the time with all formats".

When it's fixed, we'll close the bug. It's only broken on OS X.

There is a problem with gapless playback of mp3 files on Ubunutu 10.04 as well. Tested on version 0.4.

This seems to be a problem on all platforms, as it also occurs on Windows 7. Tested with r1905 .

I can also confirm that gapless playback of MP3 files with version 0.4 on Ubuntu 10.04 does not work correctly. There is a sort of 'twitch' when switching tracks that should be gapless.

Gentoo, Clementine 0.6- r2 , gapless playback doesn't work.

The problem is still present in 0.7.1. It seems to, however, concern mp3 files only - even though they are LAME-encoded (I've checked the same files on wine-run foobar2000 and they are played perfectly gaplessly). There is no problem with FLAC files. Tested on Ubuntu 10.10.

Problem prevalent for me on 0.7.1 with MP3 files. Haven't tested FLAC files. Tested on Ubuntu 11.4

Unfortunately, same in the latest dev version - 0.7.1. r3258

Tried today with some FLAC files, no gapless playback on Clementine. With Audacious, it's perfect.

Forget to say, Arch Linux x86_64, using Clementine from the community repo.

Arch Linux x86_64 too, Clementine from svn. After downgrading gstreamer0.10-good and gstreamer0.10-good-plugins to 0.10.28-1 gapless started to work.

I also see this bug on Arch Linux x86_64 with clementine checked out from git today. My gstreamer0.10-good and gstreamer0.10-good-plugins versions are 0.10.29.

Debian 6.0, Clementine 0.7.1 and I'm also having this problem :(

It seems this is a (pretty old) gstreamer bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=701952
From spiro.multimax on December 22, 2011 18:41:47
gstreamer fixed this issue for FLAC -- confirmed by me in Clementine -- as of gst-plugins-good-0.10.30.2-2. But MP3 files are still not played gaplessly in Clementine.

I'm not sure how this works for people in general these days, but gapless playback of mp3's still doesn't work for me in OS X.
From ville.aakko on October 21, 2012 13:03:25
Gapless playback does not work for me (I mostly use ogg). Should I file another bug report, is this only for MP3? This is on Linux (Gentoo).
From Rewarp on October 25, 2012 09:22:20
I don't get precise gapless playback working for Christopher Tin's Calling All Dawns album, either for mp3 of FLAC. Using Ubuntu 12.04.
From [email protected] on December 05, 2012 04:52:36
no gapless playback on both FLAC and MP3, using 1.1 on Ubuntu 12.04
these files play fine gapless with aqualung
