How to stop silences between tracks

[geh333]

Hi.
I’m using the free version of Asset UPnP being accessed over a LAN by a Naim Uniti. I have live concert recordings such as available from the Internet Music Archive. Each track has a separate file, but some tracks segue into each other and the software introduces silence between the tracks, thus annoyingly interrupting the segue. What I am seeking is how to tell the software not to introduce the silence. The Naim I guess doesn't introduce the gaps, so it must be the Asset UPnP. Could it be the PauseStart and PauseEnd settings in the config file - currently 7000 and 4000 respectively? Is changing them easy and sensible?
Previously asked in the "How Do I" and suggested to move here. Sorry if it's a FAQ.
Thanks,
Graham

Technically it is, with UPnP there are gaps between the tracks when one track finishes the player has to ask for the 2nd track after playback has finished.

I use several different players with Asset. Some support gapless playback and some don't. I do not get gapless playback when streaming from Asset to my Yamaha receiver, but using Foobar2000 with the UPnP plugin, gapless works great streaming from Asset.

Thanks, Spoon. I should have thiought of that! Presumably that means there's no easy solution with a Uniti :-(

Re: How to stop silences between tracks

Naim will be implementing a work around (work around the limitation of UPnP), once that is done then an updated control point will be able to play gapless off Asset UPnP.
