There is a way to specify the time delay between audio tracks on the same playlist?

Question

I need to set a specific time delay between audio tracks on the playlist. Ex. 10 seconds delay. How could I achieve this?. Thanks in advance

There are two ways:

1. Create a silent audio track of the desired duration and insert it between each item in your ConcatenatingAudioSource.
2. Don't use ConcatenatingAudioSource, write your own playlist logic.

An example of the second approach could be:

// Maintain your own playlist position
int index = 0;
// Define your tracks
final tracks = <IndexedAudioSource>[ ... ];

// Auto advance with a delay when the current track completes
player.processingStateStream.listen((state) async {
  if (state == ProcessingState.completed && index < tracks.length) {
    await Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 10));
    // You might want to check if another skip happened during our sleep
    // before we execute this skip.
    skipToIndex(index + 1);
  }
});

// Make this a method so that you can wire up UI buttons to skip on demand.
Future<void> skipToIndex(int i) {
  index = i;
  await player.setAudioSource(tracks[index]);
}
