converting an album to a single track with all gaps intact

[ibbeebee]

I'm converting flac files on my computer to AAC's for use on my phone & I would like to turn the albums into single tracks, so that I can use the next track selection on my IEM's to play albums, instead of tracks.

I'm sure all I need is an extra setting in my string & it's almost certainly available already somewhere on here, but I couldn't figure out how to word my search Thanks in advance for any help Regards Beebee

I do not think we have anything which can do this.

I don't mean that I want to be able to play the tracks individually I just want to keep the spaces between tracks Regards David
Maybe I'm asking my question wrongly, all I want to do is remove all of the song cues & just have one cue for each album i convert David

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is an IEM?

I think that stands for "in-ear monitor."

The only thing I can think of is to re-rip the CDs using the "Rip as One" dsp to treat the entire album as a single song. That should retain intra-CD song gaps. But that's a lot of work!! What player are you using? Seems like most can play an album then allow you to select another album?

It looks like I will just have to live with it. It's just to save me getting my phone out of my pocket to play the next album. The controls on my phones will only select random tracks, & it would have been great if I could get it to play random albums instead. But it's a first world issue & not that big a deal. Spoons Path & naming Syntax is so powerful that I assumed wrongly,it would only be a matter of adding another tag to my string to make this happen, Thanks for the input Regards David
