I've just updated to the latest firmware , v1.0.2 Build018.
..
In the meantime I can notice a big improvement in regards to the gapless feature.
With this firmware Tidal Connect is not yet gapless as it should be (I'm sure it should be, because when connecting to other streamers it is gapless), but it's now certainly and definitely better than the previous firmware.
The transition from current track to the next is now much quicker : it took a couple of seconds with previous 1.0.1 firmware, and it takes now just a fraction of a second: much better then. Good work.
However it's not yet really Gapless, so we will still hear an interruption between tracks, but it's better then before.
Looking forward to seeing in the roadmap a future release with a definitive gapless feature fix.
Thx
After more then six months and several firmware updates the implementation of Tidal is still questionable and not satisfactory.
The gapless feature is not fully working as it should. When switched on, the transition from one track to next one is actually "faded" (that is technically different from "gapless") and the effect is that you have a quite quick change, but you still hear an interruption between tracks.
Compare it to the behaviour in Roon or in Volumio , and you'll see the difference. For example The Wall (Pink Floyd) is a good test album for this, as it should behave as a continuous sound track, with no break/interruptions between tracks.
Furthermore , the Tidal Connect feature keep working quite bad. Every 2/3 days I have to unplug the power cable and fully restart the x-Sabre , otherwise the app from the smartphone fail in the connect.
