Issue description

Hey, as suggested I am reporting the issue I am having with gapless playback using the local decoder.

What Happened:
When playing mp3 songs from an album which supposedly has no silence between tracks e.g. live concerts, there is an audible “click” and a tiny gap between the tracks played in sequence. The gap is very short, milliseconds probably, but enough to be noticeable.
When disabling the local renderer, gapless playing works fine.

What I expected to happen:
The songs should seamlessly transition with no audible clue.

Player involved:
Symfonium for Android, latest version, tested on a Google Pixel 9 and a Xiaomi POCO F5.

Device type

Phone

Media provider

Navidrome

Steps to reproduce

  1. Play an album with no silence between tracks
  2. The issue occurs as soon as a new track in the sequence gets played

Additional information

I uploaded a screen+audio capture of the issue

Done! Sorry about the delay. I’ve included samples from two different albums, although the issue occurs on pretty much every album in my library.

Thanks for your hard work.

Hi there,

I wanted to check in on this issue. I uploaded the sample MP3s a over week ago as requested, but I haven’t heard back.

I see the status has been changed to “fixed” and “duplicate.” However, the bug is still happening for me in the app. If this is a duplicate, could you please post a link to the thread in question so I can see if there is a workaround or a known fix? I might have missed it when searching for a solution.

Thank you for your help!
