Yes, weird - seems their docs are out of date - wonder how many other options remain undocumented. Perhaps mention this also the LAME guys. >Also, BlueChip provided us with this: > >>http://www.gamingforce.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-29618.html >> >>"LAME's --nogap switch is only useful for multiple MP3 encodes on the >>same commandline.

I think that problems may arise either way ...it would be nice to have the choice - or perhaps make the decision by "which is quieter - end of trk1 or start of trk2?" and then cut the QUIET bit to the front/back of the other track ...still has issues, but is a start to circumvent the initial issue.
