Sound stops

[madster456]

Hey, So I have used this in a few different projects, and in all of them when I run the game or what ever it is im running, it will load with no errors, or anything, will load the song, and will only play X amount of time in the song/sound. Any idea? I have not tried to use any other sound file, only .wav files

Hmm, could you post some code? I haven't heard of this problem before. Ideally, it would be some minimum amount of code to reproduce the error.

Yes, I have this same problem too. I tried it on two computers, one desktop running Windows Vista, and one laptop running Windows 7. Both had exactly the same problem. I even tried reverting to TinySound 1.0 instead of the newest version 1.1.0, but I still had the same problem. I'm using Eclipse as my IDE, and I loaded the tinysound.jar to the build path of my project, and importing and everything works fine, there's no errors or anything. I used your example code exactly as written (with the exception of the wav file names). I ran the program, everything worked fine for about 10 seconds, and then the program terminated suddenly.

Also, I tried to load just a music file, and that fared even worse. The program ran for about a second, and then it stopped, without playing the wav file. Here is the code I used:

import kuusisto.tinysound.Music;
import kuusisto.tinysound.TinySound;

public class TinySoundTest {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        //initialize TinySound
        TinySound.init();
        //load a sound and music
        //note: you can also load with Files, URLs and InputStreams
        Music song = TinySound.loadMusic("NewYorkSixty.wav");
        //start playing the music on loop
        song.play(true);
        //be sure to shutdown TinySound when done
        TinySound.shutdown();
    }

}

This is the example code without the sound effect component. I hope this makes the problem clearer! If you need any clarifications just let me know.

SanatKeys, I was able to fix my problem. I will pull up my code(need to find it) and show you the way I did it.

[finnkuusisto]

Cool. If you post your solution, @madster456, it may help me figure out what was going on in the first place.

[madster456]

Sure thing. I need to dig around for it. Will try to get it this week

[finnkuusisto]

I just came back to look at this. @SanatKeys, are you sure it isn't just terminating properly? You said that the example code that I provide stops working after ~10 seconds. If you look at the loop logic, it's only supposed to run for 20 seconds anyway.

[madster456]

Looking back at my code for my game.. Thats exactly what happened. It was running for 20 seconds, why I didn't pay attention to that, I have no clue, but I hope that fixes your issue @SanatKeys

I'm going to close this issue since the original problem was resolved.
