Hi all,

I’m really in to my mixed dance compilations which has all been ripped as individual tracks (rather than one long file) but when I play them in PLEX I get a slight pause between tracks as it switches from one to the next.

Is there an option like in iTunes to say “part of a compilation” or something that will allow it to play continuously?

If there is, can I do it per album rather than a global setting for all my music?

Thanks  
Jon

Plex does not have gapless playback.

Depends on the client, OpenPHT and Rasplex support gapless playback.
