Bugzilla – Bug 5987
Pause doesn't stick for short compressed tracks
Last modified: 2009-06-17 09:35:05 UTC
When testing for gapless AAC playback using test files (very short files) from bug 4544 converted to m4a which use mov123 to playback. While playing back if you Pause/Play/Pause with web interface - usually after a few cycles SC ignores the Pause and keeps playing. Sometimes it will play and then stop playing but Web interface and SB interface says tracks are playing.
The depth of the changes required for this behavior is risky. We will try to do this in the future.
I think that his should be fixed somewhere in the 7.3 series, certainly by 7.3.3. Bryan, can you confirm?
I need to do more testing but the basic symptom has gone but when pause/play/pause a playlist of short tracks - but if paused in the middle of a track it keeps going back to the start of the track and so never plays the all the tracks in the playlist. This was always an artificial situation (v. short track - typically 5 secs) and I am not sure if it is worthwhile doing more work unless you think there is an underlying bug.
This bug has been fixed in the 7.3.3 release version of SqueezeCenter! If you haven't already. please download the new version from http://www.logitechsqueezebox.com/support/download-squeezecenter.html If you are still experiencing this problem, feel free to reopen the bug with your new comments and we'll have another look.
