Not sure how WMP cross fading settings are related. I can enable there, and play media in WMP and it works as expected.

NOT fixed in 1.0.9.8

S4Per - would you mind updating your original post to include 1.0.9.8 in the version field? Part of the title for the post is pulled from that field.

It will help us determine which bugs are for which versions and lets us know that you have retested with the latest version.

Thanks for your continued reporting, it's been invaluable!

Crossfading is enabled in the Music Settings. Songs simply do not crossfade. It is certainly not an issue with dead air at the end or beginning of tracks as I have experienced this with hundreds of songs.

Please provide any relevent information regarding the issue you have encountered.

The notes for the 1.0.5.8 updated stated that Crossfading support was there. I do not recall what version I was running prior to 1.0.8.1, but crossfading did not work in that previous version either. I do have 1.0.9.8 installed on my development system but have not been able to determine if crossfading is working in that version. My media volume reverts to zero and will not allow me to change it. I suspect this may be a "security" feature to prevent people from using the development environment as a media player. If that's not that case, then please advise what I can do to recreate the non-crossfading issue in my development environment. I have refrained from updating my 1.0.8.1. carpc to 1.0.9.8 due to the issue with StreetDeck not staying in night mode, so at this point I cannot determine if crossfading is working in 1.0.9.8.

This issue was discussed in this thread: http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/stre...ss-fading.html but there was no apparent resolution to that thread, so I am reporting it in the bug subform as well.

I noticed the same problem using 1.0.9.8

3rd. has never worked for me.

Never worked for me either

Same here. I don't think it has ever worked for me.
