MP3Blaster cuts the ends off of songs when it plays them. Maybe the last half or three-quarters of a second. Not noticeable with most music, however, songs that have audible music right to the end are noticeably trimmed. I've checked, it does it when you play one song as well as a playlist.
Thanks for the bug report. Looks like this was reported upstream 10 years ago: https://sourceforge.net/p/mp3blaster/bugs/17/ It's probably an issue just with mp3blaster, but for completeness please could you attach the output of emerge --info?

(In reply to Matt Smith from comment #1) > Looks like this was reported upstream 10 years ago: > https://sourceforge.net/p/mp3blaster/bugs/17/ There has also been no activity from upstream in 4 years. I suspect that this issue is unlikely to be fixed.
