Gapless playback #228

Open Baudouin0 opened 5 years ago

It now supported would be lovely to add this in.

'Plenty of albums are designed to be listened to as one continuous mix, so in a recent upgrade Spotify added the option to eliminate the gaps between tracks when you're listening to them. It should be enabled by default, but to check go to Spotify settings and tick the "Gapless Playback" option'

Unfortunately, Spotify implementing features into their client doesn't automatically enable it for us. Spotify have an embedded SDK, it is under wraps and is not accessible to us common folk. So this means we need to reverse engineer and implement it into an open source version - librespot.

That being said, gapless playback is something I started implementing a while back, but never found time to polish up enough for it to be usable for everyone. Feel free to give it a go!

librespot does now support gapless playback since 10 days. https://github.com/librespot-org/librespot/pull/430
