MP3 and AAC have typically the gap. WAV which I assume you may have does not have that.

Apple did something within Ipod & Itunes to remove the gap digitally and stitch the songs together ....

Hey Mr10Percent, do you like living in a Ford Transit? 😂😂😂

You know sometimes when you wish you hadn't asked......................

Peculiar?

Actually, it’s more of a Boeing Transit rather than a Ford.

…and where did Ford come in to this and why now?????

I must have logged on to the wrong forum this morning?

Ciao. Keep taking the pills.

Errr. Hang on a minute,

I have reviewed this thread and re-tested a number of albums on the BS5 and CD that I have and looked into this galpless issue once more. These include live albums, classical compositions and progressive albums like The Wall.

All I can say is that the "gap" between tracks on the BS5 is the same as it was on the original CD.  i.e. If there is no apparent "gap" in say clapping/appluase between CD tracks on th CD, the BS5 appears on my recordings to play the same. Where "Live" albums have been stitched together from separate live recordings (or from a different recording source at the same venue), then you hear that (or the sound engineers attempt to blend the two) on both the CD and the BS5.

Of course, there may be an issue with ripping CD's at lower bit-rates which reveals a "gap" more explicitly. I dont know.  

My 2 cents.

Because everything is ripped in 320 AAC I also tried to re-rip a live CD from Arena in wma lossless and on some tracks I didn't have the gap on others there was a small 'hesitation' which could be heard. Indeed it's better in lossless and depending on how it was recorded but still not worth 5000 euro.

Today I received another answer from Beocare telling me that they don't have enough complaints from the market in order to prioritise this issue but they do agree this is an issue.

They also said that this was never communicated to the dealers this issue would be solved. Good to know for future buyers!

This is not something most people will ask for when they buy the product. Also, it's not really relevant for enjoying MOTS. But, if you listen to compilations (which prob younger people then their average customer do more) and live recordings then this frustrates big time.

For me READ IT B&O ... this is is show stopper .... I remember when I switched from Sony MD Player to Ipod how frustrated I was ...

I wont give gapless and no 2 way up for MOTS, that is for sure. In fact I am not even in a hurry to take the demo on the product until both items are fixed ...... I don't want to waste my dealers time. I do agree though that there may be other issues to fix, i.e. christmas music being picked up by MOTS in the middle of summer.

Right now I`m listening to James Taylor`s Live Album (disc 1) played by the BS5. It`s played gapless with absolutely NO interruption, break, hesitation or whatever..... just the same as from CD. One thing that happens between two songs: Cover and title disappear from display then cover and new title appear. The album is ripped in lossless format.

For the 2 way issue I think you could do the "itunes-ipodtouch-trick", as known from the BM1. Worked great on my BM1. I didn`t install itunes on my BM5, because I`m using MOTS alot and I love it - Yes, Xmas music is a problem from January to November.

In that case I have to retry and rip a couple of my cd's in lossless again. Thank you for the support! Some of you should be sitting at the Beocare side.
