Configure audio fades between sources — My Music Player and My Music Player LE

Modified on Tue, 27 Oct at 5:38 PM

When a new playback command occurs, audio fades provide progressive transitions between the initial and final playback states.

  1. Fade-out on the initial playback state: reduces the player’s volume from its current level to the minimum level (mute) over a defined duration.
  2. Fade-in on the final playback state: increases the player’s volume from the minimum level (mute) to its current level over a defined duration.


To provide a smooth transition, the player applies the following rules:

  • Although the fade-out duration is set to a specific value, it can change dynamically according to the playback context. The duration is automatically reduced if the remaining time of the file currently playing is shorter than the configured fade duration.
  • When the player plays local content, no fade-in is required when a playback command calls content from the Main Media or an alternate storage device.


Initial and final playback states

Each cell shows the transition as fade-out / fade-in.
