iPod Gapless rip on iTunes, but not on iPod

[liquidsense]

I ripped a new electronic mix (Sasha Involv2er) through iTunes, imported using the MP3 encoder. The tracks play seamlessly/gapless through iTunes, but when I put those same tracks on my iPod (shuffle 3G), there is a fraction of a second gap between tracks.

I did my research here, and I tried: 1) re-importing from the CD; and 2) clicked each track from the album, hit cmd-i and marked the box that says "part of a gapless album" -- but neither of those things helped.

Does anyone know of a way I can get this to work? I would be very grateful.


EDIT: Nevermind. I just found out that this freaking shuffle 3G does not support gapless playback.

a shuffle dosn't play albums, but songs. It wont play gapless unless its playing the album and i knows it, and you have to tell it to play it as an album, witch is kidna impossible on an ishuffle. sorry.

In short, the shuffle does not support gapless at all.
