[QUOTE="Bewildered, post: 266706, member: 74739"] Hi, As this a MP configuration issue I figured the System Spec wouldn't be required and I could save some time by not writing it all out again.

Cross Fade[/U] The cross fade feature is GREAT when SKIPPING a track [B]BUT[/B] I have found it [B]awful[/B] when listening to a synchronis set of mp3 files (e.g an album) where by default one song blends to another - here the feature mangles the audio and the track transistions are painful.

Provide an option in the My Music menu to manually turn on cross fade (with a button like the "TV on" one). Using #2 the feature is active for all tracks being played.
