We await your patch!

In all seriousness, the reason this is not well explained in the manual is because at the time I wrote the crossfade section of the manual, (1) I didn't understand those settings, and (2) there was talk of simplying the settings so I didn't spend much time trying to understand them.  The simplification of the settings never happened, and I agree that the description in the manual is inadequate.   I have had virtually no time recently to devote to Rockbox (don't you hate it when RealLife gets in the way?) so if anyone would like to take a stab at re-writing this section or providing an appropriate picture, that would be great.

Unfortunately I did not read the mentioned thread http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=3178.0 in May because I do not use crossfading but I would like to say that the current way of configuring it with four parameters is really too complicated and confusing.

I have independently thought of the same idea like the one mentioned in the thread. The three parameters:
* fade in duration
* fade out duration
* overlap
would be much more easy to understand and configure. What do you think? In addition - negative overlap could easily be used for setting pause between tracks (when implemented).
