Gapless playback between tracks


There should be no gap between tracks running into each other. This is a basic thing for the listeners experience.

Could Deezer add an album as one track for the albums which would benefit from gapless playback?

@PotatoOverlord As I mentioned in another topic, I have raised the question again and I hope I can comeback with an update soon.
Thanks 

@Jaime.  No update after 3 months?


Deezer has already implemented Gapless playback on the webplayer and on Android quite a while ago.

Try playing Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd…..plays gapless wonderfully.

I’m using the desktop app on windows. That still doesn’t playback gapless.

Why not try the webplayer, there’s not much difference in the layout, although you may have the facility to download tracks using the app on windows etc…... you can’t do that on the webplayer, but I personally would rather have the ability to play gapless albums if they have been recorded that way.

What is it to you which player I use? I’d like gapless playback on the desktop app.

It’s pretty hard to get your knickers in a twist when you’re wearing them. 😂


On a serious note KDAM71…. Deezer has been dragging their heels for years on this subject. I have been on at Deezer for a couple of years to have gapless playback on all platforms. As you are already  aware the webplayer and Android can now play gapless (that took years)  but for some reason they have not implemented it on the desktop app which is APPALLING.

I use picoreplayer with Logitech Media Server on a raspberry pi 5 and Deezer plays gapless, the one thing it can’t do is play the desktop app on the Chromium/Firefox browsers….it’s not compatible with the Linux OS.

But that’s another subject.

@KDAM71 I would love to have exciting news for you, but to we don’t have an ETA for gapless on desktop app yet.
​​​@coypu mentioned, some features take longer than others to be implemented depending on priorities.
Apologies for the inconvenience and I hope I can provide any update in the short term.

Thank you @Jaime.

@Jaime. - What are the “priorities” as far as development is concerned? - we always get told when a feature isn’t possible, but how about telling us what you are actually working on? - some sort of roadmap for the development of the service would be good!

@Jaime.  I’m also interested in developments on the mix feature and the don’t recommend feature.


@cjp1959 @KDAM71 I’ll try to gather that info and see what we can share…
Thanks for your patience :)

I hope there is brand new bugless desktop app which I can close with the close button like every other apps.


And still nothing. I wonder how many people will quit Dezeer in favour of the newly cheaper Tidal. This is not tribalism or anything like it, I just want some basic features which are still unavailable in 2024, so even with all my love towards Deezer, and knowledge of their limited number of devs, I think I may not stick around for very long. Desktop gapless - not there, integration with Roon - not there, DAC support - not there, desktop bit perfect - not there. I understand that, maybe, there are a just a few devs sitting somewhere in France protecting us from a demonic flood of bugs and that consumes most of their time, but it’s not a good service. And it’s no longer competitive price-wise. Sad.


And canceled. I will be watching Deezer’s progress and hopefully one day I will come back. Best wishes to all the users. And hopefully the service gets better and some point. Cheers!

Hi RavenOvNadir,

Sorry to hear you have decided to leave Deezer. I just wondered what method you use to listen to Deezer as there is some ways that you can listen to music and it will play gapless. For example using the Webplayer on your PC/Laptop instead of the Deezer App also the Android App will play gapless.

I have got to say that Deezer have drag their heels on this one and it’s no surprise that a lot of punters are leaving Deezer and trying out other streaming services.

I wish you all the luck for the future and you find a streaming service that fulfills all your music listening expectations.

Cheers
