Gapless playback between tracks

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

Hi,
I have just bought a Sonos Play One for the dining room so I play my Deezer music through the Sonos app when I'm downstairs. The Sonos app has a fantastic feature called cross fade which fades out the end of one track and starts to fade in the next track so there is no gap between songs. We love this feature and was wondering if this could be something that Deezer could introduce as an option when playing music?

Hello @Dgreensuperhoops.
Thanks for the update. Could you give more information on how it is not working anymore?
Beware that crossfade is only available on the beta app and you have to activate it in Deezer labs settings.

Hi @Jean-Baptite Vincey

I still have the same problem (I'm on Android beta). If I restart my phone it works but once I close the app and go back to it later cross-fade function is no longer there (until I then restart my device again).

Very frustrating as one of the best features of Android Beta!
I'm a "Deezerhead" (fanboy) and just love music! (Please note even though I love all things Deezer I do not work for Deezer and therefore cannot assist with account issues etc.)

Hi @Dgreensuperhoops

try restarting your device and checking to see if it re-appears (then it's either just me or a bug!)

The option is there, it just doesn’t cross fade anything. I’ve tried various seconds of cross fade but just doesn’t work anymore.

@Dgreensuperhoops ok thanks!
Could you tell what your phone is and on which Android version you are, to help us investigate the problem?

@Optimus I merged your post into this existing topic. Do you have the latest Android and Deezer Beta version on the device where you can't see the crossfade option?

This is not an idea, but mandatory for a music player.

Same here. This should be mandatory for a music player.
