Feature request: Gapless playback #8

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.2.2   OpenSuse 12.1

Please provide any additional information below.
Since as I understand gstreamer supports gapless playback (Audacious plays back 
wav, ape, flac, ogg gaplessly, though not mp3 and m4a), it would be great if 
gst123 would also do so, it would be better than most Linux audio players.

Right, thats a feature request that is definitely within the scope of gst123. I 
googled a bit, and it seems that gstreamer allows gapless playback in 
combination with playbin2 (which gst123 is using already) by emitting an 
"about-to-finish" signal before the song ends:

If you can / want to, you can try to implement it yourself and send a patch; if 
not, I'll look into it when I have some time for gst123 hacking - this might 
take a while.
