Unfortunately gapless is not available on our desktop player at this time.

This is an official Shanling statement now put it with this Twitter declaration:

If you looking for affordable streamer, we offer EM5. EM7 aims at different level.

Music player is stopping reading current track while loading the next one and charging more than 1K is aiming a different level sure.

You just described the reality in 99.9% of all so-called "tech companies," except that I would say you were overly optimistic about the ratio. My observation is that it's probably worse than 100:1

Many companies deliver that's were Marketing excels and win market shares, it is not a cover up.

Sorry, I didn't understand. But as somebody with many decades in engineering, I see a death spiral since the beginning of the 1990s.

My point was marketing is not bad per se only when it trump fundamentals.

I agree with you, but it almost never does. That was the 99.9% I mentioned

Does the EM7 act as an integrated amp for speakers as well or do we need to wait for an EA7?

We are planning firmware update for desktop machines over summer. Not a complete overhaul, but quite a few improvements that should make life easier.

FW update? You mean for EM5 ?

please put gapless playback on the future FW update.

EM5 sounds good and versatile in use, loving it

EM7 is evolution of EM5, so main focus is on headphone users. But there might be EA variant with integrated amp

Yes, we always bring new changes to all models on same platform, so when we have new firmware, it will be for all our desktop streamers.

We will add gapless once our software team figure how to do it.

Thank you Shanling, all the best for future FW roll out !

I have feed back on the newest Eddict Player app, aside its more stable wireless projection connection, I found out twice, when connected via wireless projection, and EM5 screen is off while playing local file, I found the golden power button is not able to wake the screen ON on EM5.
Finally, I am using wireless projection from my mobile and able to turn the EM5 screen ON again...

Not sure if any users have the same issue.

The headphone outs are muted when you have EM5 set to lineout.

Hello, @Shanling is there any other way to download Eddict Player Android app, have Huawei phone with no Google Play, so I have to use my old phone as remote.
Thank you for your help.
Sorry, found it on APKPure...

em5 cannot shut down by the golden button again, must turn off by the button at the back. Is this relate to the latest update of Eddict player?

Normal with mine. Shut down using golden vol button.

This happened after performing the screen projection, and also could not wake up the em5 screen by pressing the golden button
