xmms-crossfade (A Crossfade/Gapless plugin for XMMS)
This plugin can be used to remove the gaps between two songs, or to
smoothly crossfade inbetween.
Features:
* Crossfading
Crossfade between two songs, i.e. fade out the end of the current
song while fading in the beginning of the next for a smooth
transition. Length and volume of the fadings can be adjusted
separately for fading in and out.
* Fadein/Fadeout
Smoothly fadein/fadeout at the beginning or end of playback.
* Continuous output
Keeps the audio device opened when switching from one song to
the next. When used with the Gap-Killer, this allows for seamless
playback of whole albums without any audible interruption between
the tracks.
* Gap-Killer
Removes the short gaps of silence at the beginning and/or end of mp3
files. These gaps are caused by some mp3-encoders.
* Automatic detection of live albums
Automatically detects live albums and pre-mixed tracks which already
are crossfaded. For those tracks, crossfading can be disabled
automatically.
* High quality
XMMS-crossfade can take special care to avoid the clicks some
soundcards produce when suddenly being stopped. Also, it can improve
quality when seeking within a song.
* Secondary effect plugin:
XMMS-crossfade allows you to select a second effect plugin. This is
useful for example when using the volume normalizing plugin together
with the icecast plugin.
