Banshee gapless playback does not work when playing mp3s
- by ComputerGuy505
Even though I have gapless playback enabled in Banshee's settings menu, there is a very short pause between songs. This might be due to the fact that my hard drive's partitions seem wierd. fdisk -l produces this output:

Playing mp3's from /dev/sda2 or /dev/sda6 produces this problem. I don't seem to have gapless playback on Rhythmbox or Clementine either, if those media players are supposed to have it.
I'm not sure what other info to provide. This is just annoying to me. Thanks for any help.
