Related to setNextMediaPlayer it would great to have more info such as:

- for which codecs will it handle gapless ? Are there restrictions ?

Can't imagine there would be a problem with codecs.  The issue is that you want a continuous stream of PCM data, going to audio out, not where the (decoded) PCM is coming from.

According to my own tests, setNextMediaPlayer will play gaplessly for FLAC, Ogg Vorbis and WAV but *not* MP3 and AAC (M4A).
There is a small 50 or 100ms gap for these. That is very disappointing. The MP3 and AAC files I tried played gaplessly in foobar2000.

There you go for codecs not making a difference...
