Basically, the two indexes are to indicate a break or a gap is to be written in at that point. They're pretty annoying, especially when listening to mixed sets. I think you can delete one of the indexes for each track (not sure which one though) to get rid of that gap. I'm pretty sure that's what they're for, or they could also indicate time countdowns (like when you see -2 sec. right before a new track starts.) I hope any of this helps.
