Re: Random play and occasional buffer play glitch

I notice this happens when I play an existing playlist.  I always leave
the Audiotron in "random" mode.  When I skip back a couple of songs I
get the same fraction of a second of another song before the next song
loads.

in
the buffer as well, even when playing random. I suspect it has
something to
do with VBR mp3, where it is quite difficult to get the exact total
time of
the song.

What I did:

- add songs to a playlist and start playing
- when the first song was playing press the random button. This maybe
explains why a fraction of the second song was still in the buffer as
the
Audiotron would first start playing in the playlist order and during
playing
the first song was told to switch to random play

Anybody noticed it too?
