Hi Cider Team,

I’m experiencing an issue with seamless playback on the Cider Windows client (version 3.0.0). When playing the same playlist in Apple Music on other platforms (e.g. Android), transitions between tracks are smooth without gaps. However, on Cider, tracks consistently pause briefly between transitions, breaking the continuity of playback.

This behavior occurs across all playlists that are confirmed to support seamless playback on official Apple Music clients. As Cider is designed to replicate Apple Music’s functionality, I suspect this may relate to how the client handles audio buffering or the Web Audio API implementation.

Environment:

OS: Windows 11

Cider Version: 3.0.0
