Gapless playback of FLAC files.


I use a Blu-ray player to send my FLAC files to my dac. The audio sounds very good but I run into an issue when two FLAC files are supposed to be continuous, with no break. My Blu-ray player (Sony UBP-X700) adds a second of silence, even when the FLAC files have no break at the end. This doesn’t happen when I play the files on Foobar2000, but I prefer to have a freestanding transport for sending files to my dac, instead of using a computer.

I heard that Panasonic makes a Blu-ray player that can do gapless playback, but I like the RCA Coax SPDIF jack on my Sony player and the Panasonic doesn’t have that. I wonder why it’s so hard to get gapless playback.

Any ideas? (All I want is to send gapless FLAC to my dac.)

Are you sure? If YES, then how does it matter that it is sent via a computer Vs a transport? How are you sending these FLAC files to the DAC, if not using a computer?
