I find that in iT4 this preference set to zero no longer perform premature crossfade as it did in previous versions. This setting is best for all music because breaks between tracks are built into songs that are meant to have breaks at the end of each track. Compilations and symphonies now play seamlessly with no breaks nor premature crossfade in iT4 for me. The delay mentioned below is an unusual situations involving a server that the writer admits happens only occasionally. I think Apple has fixed the problems with this setting in iT4. kunga10 (AIM) kunga47 (Yahoo Messenger with Cross-Platform dial-up Video sans audio) On Monday, July 21, 2003, at 08:25 AM, 8p2uny2hgfk001 at sneakemail.com wrote: > I wouldn't be so sure.
