Ok, fair, I moved to version 1.2.5 on the DX50 to try to see if the gapless was ok, enabled gapless by setting it up to 5 seconds and no loss of music at the end of the first song but the next song started after a one second delay so not quite gapless. I changed the setting to 10 seconds and no difference. Gapless setting to close yielded the worse result with a two second lost at the end of the first song.
I think the crossfade is the most seamless setting so far on 1.2.6. The only thing I wish is for them to re-introduce true gapless with no delays whatsoever and make the cross fade optional. Now that would be a fantastic setup, everyone would be happy.
I am going to move back to 1.2.6 and check the gapless results with the same above setup.
I have to say, this is not the behavior I am experiencing with gapless on with firmware 1.2.5. There is no lost audio at the end of flacs for me, if there it would interrupt tracks that roll into the next such as my live albums. My transitions have been perfect where I cannot even identify the moment the tracks transition. It is curious that you have different results however.
