Description

If you're listening to a musical or something where all the tracks flow into each other, it would be nice to not have to hear that slight pause when going to the next track on a playlist. It's a very short pause and it's not that jarring, but it is noticeable. Maybe there's something that could be done with preloading the next track on a playlist??

Start by tracing how the player advances between playlist tracks and whether the next track is prepared before the current one ends; done means consecutive playlist tracks play without the noticeable pause, with existing playback behavior preserved.
