(You'll find it on the tools page > if you don't have it yet) You don't need to run vbrfix afterwards. With a recent lame, just add the option --nogaptags and it'll work. lame disables the VBR tags by default when doing gapless encoding because many players don't properly strip metadata, so the playback wouldn't be gapless. Rockbox is clever enough to handle this. >> I've looked on the lame web site but can't even find --nogap >> documented anywhere!
