PS: Since the error has not been fixed so far, I would like to ask if one of the forum admins could change the green tick in the topic symbol to the red exclamation mark.

Thank you very much!

Hello everyone,

Since I'm not sure if anyone is still reading this topic, I took the liberty of opening a new one.

Two days ago I received the update from MMA to build 1248. My smartphone has also been updated to Android 15 and One UI 7 at the same day.

And once again, gapless playback no longer works. I measured a gap of 360 to 380 ms with the gapless audio transition activated. Unfortunately, I cannot say which of the updates mentioned above caused the problem.

For me, gapless playback is an essential feature of an audio player and I have to be honest and say that the gapless playback issue with MMA becomes increasingly frustrating and annoying when you have to worry about it being disabled with every update of MMA or the smartphone.

I have created another debug log after switching from one title to another. The log ID is BZYDLYY9J9

Best regards
Christian

I am on 2.0.5.1245 and there is still a minor pause between tracks, the Iron Maiden album killers should have a seamless transition between "The Ides of March" and Wrathchild but there is a very small but noticeable gap.

I tried setting the transition to None but that made a massive noticeable pause, so I went back to "Gapless" tried one more time with that album but the gap remains.
I am also on build 1245 and gapless playback works perfectly for me.

It is quite possible that your problem lies with the music files themselves. But since I don't know which encoder was used here, this is pure speculation.

No I have definitely had these files in the past play gapless, these aren't newly added files but ones that have been in the library for ages and I remember them playing gapless before.

Hello everyone,

I have just received the build 1244.

In this version the gapless playback works again.

Thanks for addressing this issue.

Hello everyone,

I have recently updated to build 1243.

Unfortunately, the gapless playback again no longer works in this build. A short pause is inserted between the tracks again. In principle, this is the same behaviour as I described here.

I have created a debug log shortly after switching from one title to the next. The log ID is CTNKV8L7AW

Best regards

To clarify: 1230 will solve gapless issues on A15. 1231 is needed to fix a bug in 1230 that affects gapless on pre-A15 devices.

Hi rusty, Hi Martin!

A quick test of the latest build 1231 shows that gapless playback is now working again on my device.

Many thanks for the fix.

Best regards

TKS. I have 2.0.4.1230 queued up to in my Play Store right now.

So with this update, my Android 15 phone should be able to do gapless? Or should I change that to "None" as well.
