If the end of a track doesn't line up with the end of a CD sector, silence will be added to the end of the track to align it with the next CD sector, causing a gap that may sometimes be detectable. The above might not pertain to your problem, but it certainly could help. It solved a pesky iTunes playback problem I had with at least two of my tracks years ago. I've noticed problems with the buffer in iTunes as well. Usually after a few tries, I can get two tracks to segue seamlessly, as long as there is no gap caused by trying to round off to the next CD sector.
Well, the OP has disappeared and left us to it. To paraphase The Stones, maybe he's neglected us as he's still perfecting ways of making seamless gaps When In Rome , Jul 18, Ray Blend likes this.

I just checked on my new Mac mini with iTunes 9. It stops cross fading if the songs are consecutive on the same album. If the 2nd song is not the next consecutive song from the same album, it will cross fade.
I'd like to punch it in the gap. As best I can tell, it's at about the 24K mark, out of 75K tracks. I can't do hardly anything with iTunes because as soon as I change something it picks the next 20 or so tracks to gap check. I only checked it with consecutive songs.
User profile for user: jbar jbar. McMurtrie I've been building my library for five years or so and only just recently have run into the "Determining Gapless Playback Information" problem.
While synching the gig iPod for the first time with the new laptop's iTunes I noticed that some songs got run through this routine. I let it run. Then added three albums and it immediately went back into the routine starting again with some songs.
This is only an issue when the iPod is connected But every time I update the iPod's library I get the same slow routine with the same songs. Not a perfect solution but one that is acceptable for now. The question I have is whether this is source material based or if it is playlist based I can't seem to find anything in common among the songs that keep requiring the same determination.
User profile for user: holtsch holtsch. I was hoping that this maybe got fixed with 9. And this "gapless crap" takes about 2 or 3 minutes each time I start iTunes, and during that time, I can't use iTunes at all. I noticed there's a checkbox "Gapless album". I've tried switching this off for my complete library. No change. I've tried switching it on for my complete library. I have crossfade songs disabled. What's so difficult about implementing an option "stop iTunes doing stupid stuff I don't need"???
Ok, sorry for being a bit upset but that's just annoying. User profile for user: enti enti. Mar 4, AM in response to holtsch In response to holtsch I have the same pb since I switched from Win to Mac and fully agree with holtsch! On Win I ran this procedure once over night, and never saw it again. My music is on an external drive, the described problem appears sooner or later after the iTunes start.
Currently I have to stop this 'service' takes some time , but it restarts automatically after some time. I'm also thinking about alternatives to iTunes. It's frustrating and surprising that iTunes works better on 'second class' hardware and OS than in a full Apple environment. Should have known before Most frustrating: No option to turn this 'service' off! User profile for user: jamesdstark2 jamesdstark2.
Mar 14, PM in response to holtsch In response to holtsch There is a major flaw in the programming here. I have the same issue with files determining gapless playback everytime itunes starts, and everytime it syncs with my iphone. Itunes is too stupid to remember the gapless playback information it determined. This only happens with some files, for me it is also recordings.
Maybe because they have too much space in them? Breaking it rather than not having any. You may find some album artwork missing - it never seems to be a truly perfect solution, but your play counts, playlists etc should all survive intact. I've been going nuts with this determining gapless playback nonsense. I realize this is a very old video, but thought I'd share my stop-gap no pun intended solution. When you are adding songs to your iTunes library, choose the "add file" instead of "add folder" option.
Same thing with any downloaded albums. This, for whatever reason, does not seem to kick off the determine gapless playback function. It's a shame that iTunes has such a problem handling this for its customers, but this seems to be working for me in the meantime.
