Question about downloading

Post by rluvbeach »

Is there a way to download the concerts so it plays like it does in real time without the breaks between the songs?

I’m using apple stuff if that makes any difference.

Thanks for all your hard work in uploading all these shows! And thanks in advance for your help.

Most digital audio players play the shows smoothly with no breaks between the songs, you might be able to adjust the settings of digital player to eliminate any gaps between songs so the shows will play as one continuous show. Not sure what player your are using so I can't be more specific/

Sunlover breaks up the shows into individual tracks for those that want to make CD copies of the shows. A typical Jimmy Buffett show can be burned into a two CD set as Jimmy total show length is usually between 25 and 29 songs.

It seems that earlier versions of iTunes did support Gapless Playback, but the feature was removed by version 11. I have been reading some mixed comments that it is still available and enabled by default in current versions, but have not been able to confirm it.

Something you may try is enabling crossfading between tracks. If you set the cross fade to 1 second (or less, if available), this should allow the tracks to blend to one another. To do this in iTunes, go to Edit, then Preferences. Click Playback to see the option for crossfading, then check the Crossfade Songs box. Then adjust the time slider to 1 second or less.

I use a later version of iTunes for playback, and it works great. If the tracks are gapless (which they are) then they will play as such. Load them into iTines, make it an album, and hit play. Should work perfectly.

Yup. Works perfect for me every time.
