Is it possible to add a fade out/in effect to VLC when it pauses/plays, and a crossfade effect when it changes track?
I found this as a some sort solution but not a great one. This mentions a github page, which doesn't really mention what it does.
Using VLC 2.2.0 from ppa:videolan/stable-daily
on 14.04, and 2.2.* on other machines. Could use different version if necessary.
Currently, if this thread is anything to go off of, cross-fade in VLC is not easily feasible as the core of the program does not support gapless music and any add-on enabling cross-fade would have to "edit" the core of the program. There is no add-on listed on the official add-on repository either.
