[solved]Sound playing delayed

Hi sticky/all,

I found a problem of delay in sound play.
Previously it played just after i call play.

And now I enabled boost and it takes time to play. The delay is around 2 seconds.

Have you faced similar kind of issue? If yes, any solution?

Thanks

Hi deshan,

This is by design, are you trying to create a static sound as that seems a long delay?

I'd suggest preloading your sounds rather then creating and playing immediately, otherwise you could try using a streaming sound, that should be pretty instant..

If you still need to do things this way you should be able to use a listener callback to track when the sound has loaded then continue your main loop..

HTH

Sorry for the late reply.

Thanks for the reply sticky,

Above way seems to be convinient at the moment

BTW I didn't manage to find lister callback way. So what I have done is this.
while(true)
{
if(menuStateSound->getMenuStateBackGroundSound()->isPlaying())
break;
}

Any other way of doing this?

Thanks

Hi deshan,

derive a class from OgreOggISound::SoundListener and override either soundLoaded() / soundPlayed() functions to be notified of said events, attach your listener using OgreOggISound::setListener().

Hi Sticky,

Solution works like a charm.

Thank you very much.
