Hmm..  Ok, even if crossfading is not possibl, is there a way to prevent the
glitches one sees when players like vlc or mplayer are transitioning from
one media file (video) to another ?

By glitch I mean is the complete stopping of the screen displaying the video
to reveal the Desktop and the VLC control panel for a complete second or so,
and THEN the new video file starting . And all this, even when in
Full-screen mode.

I just want to prevent this. I don't care if I am staring at a blank screen
for a second, as long as the screen does not STOP.

Thanks,
Raseel
