I normally use the DAP to play songs of various formats off of my Hardrive, and for this purpose it is most excellent.
However, I notice that when I play stuff off of CD I get breaks in the music.
I guess this is 2 problems with the same root:
1 Music files playing off of CDRom will often stutter as DAP goes to access the disc again.
2 Audio CD's play with minor breaks between songs. (Only noticeable when listening to live music or songs without any silence between them)
A few other programs also seem to have this problem, but even very simple ones don't. I mean the cheapy old school Windows CD Player from 10 years ago can play Audio CD's without any breaks.
Perhaps there is some way to maintain a larger RAM buffer reading ahead? Or get the CD to start reading again before the buffer runs out? Normal CD players just play the CD at the standard speed, and thus never spin down while trying to play. Is there any way to control the way that CD's are played?
Seems silly, but I actually have to turn off my omnipresent DAP to listen to anything off of CD.
