Tutorial: How to stream music with gapless playback to your devices

Gapless playback is the uninterrupted playback of consecutive audio tracks, such that relative time distances in the original audio source are preserved over track boundaries on playback. Read more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gapless_playback

Mezzmo lets you create music tracks with gapless playback so that you can stream a set of music files as one seamless music track without any gaps between tracks to your devices in your home. This is great for streaming classical albums or live albums that you do not want interrupted with gaps when playing.

The following music file formats are supported for gapless music: MP3, FLAC, OGG and WAV.

Important: Gapless music must consist of music files from the same format (e.g. all MP3 files, all FLAC files, etc.). For best results, make sure the music files included in the gapless music have the same attributes (sample rate, etc.).

If you have already added your music files into Mezzmo, then simply select the music files in Mezzmo using your mouse and right-click on them to click Create Gapless Multi-file From Selection. The Properties dialog will be displayed with the new gapless music track. You can change the title, album, artist, etc. as you wish. Click OK to save the gapless music track and try streaming it to your device.

If you have not added your music files into your Mezzmo library, then click Add To Library -> Create Gapless Multi-File. Then select your music files from your hard disk or NAS and click OK. The Properties dialog will be displayed with the new gapless music track. You can change the title, album, artist, etc. as you wish. Click OK to save the gapless music track and try streaming it to your device.

Tip: If the music files are not in the correct order, on the Properties dialog go to the Gapless Multi-File tab to change the order of the music files.

Gapless music tracks are listed in Mezzmo just like any other music file.

To edit a gapless music track, right-click on the gapless music track in Mezzmo and click Properties. In the Properties dialog, go to the Gapless Multi-File tab to see what files are in the gapless music track.
