I will still like to continue to try to get the crossfades working too. If you send yours in, and the port maintaner adds the diffs, then it will be called _4 on the ports tree, even though it has been "downgraded." p.s. Please, don't take anything I say personal. It is not personal, I am just a zealot when it comes to trying to get things to work on Linux/UNIX (because I hate having to rely on windows for multimedia apps). The latest (1.7.5) works absolutely PERFECT (crossfades and all) on my slackware install.
