Oops, looks like I added to my post right as you were responding. Thanks for clarifying, though.
And, actually, I know you're probably pretty busy, but if you were ever able to make a tutorial on this subject I would be incredibly grateful. In fact, the entire portion of the internet that's interested in the subject might be. Your replies here are the first I have ever seen, in fact, that offer a solution. Generally, on any forum or tutorial, you will see something like:
"well, you can do playlists and just deal with the 0.5-1 second delay as it switches streams"
or
"This cannot be done with free software. BDedit can likely be used to achieve this, but it is mostly undocumented. The software you would actually need is $3,000-50,000"
Should also add that the software that will not be named is incredibly difficult to use. A simpler solution would really be great.
