Bug in _SNDOPEN (fixed in v3.14.1)

[BDS107]

Is it possible that there is a limit on the $EMBED or _EMBEDDED$?
When I have loaded some sounds, I get a repeat of the first or second sound. I can never play them all.

Example below where 5 different MP3 files are read. But the same sounds are played.
Can you test it? I am using the latest version, so the 3.14 of QB-PE.
In the example you choose 5 MP3 files yourself.

Code: (Select All)

$EMBED:'D:\Sound\Sound-1.MP3','SOUND1'
$EMBED:'D:\Sound\Sound-2.MP3','SOUND2'
$EMBED:'D:\Sound\Sound-3.MP3','SOUND3'
$EMBED:'D:\Sound\Sound-4.MP3','SOUND4'
$EMBED:'D:\Sound\Sound-5.MP3','SOUND5'

Thank you for reporting. Have been able to recreate the issue. Investigating further.

Definitly not the fault of $EMBED/_EMBEDDED$, using the code below to write the embedded files back and then using "WinMerge" to compare with the originals shows, every file is correctly handled by itself, no repeats or overlaps, so it must be an issue with the sound handles/buffers.

Code: (Select All)

$EMBED:'Sound-1.MP3','SOUND1'

$EMBED:'Sound-2.MP3','SOUND2'

$EMBED:'Sound-3.MP3','SOUND3'

$EMBED:'Sound-4.MP3','SOUND4'

$EMBED:'Sound-5.MP3','SOUND5'



_WRITEFILE "Sound-11.mp3", _EMBEDDED$("SOUND1")

_WRITEFILE "Sound-22.mp3", _EMBEDDED$("SOUND2")

_WRITEFILE "Sound-33.mp3", _EMBEDDED$("SOUND3")

_WRITEFILE "Sound-44.mp3", _EMBEDDED$("SOUND4")

_WRITEFILE "Sound-55.mp3", _EMBEDDED$("SOUND5")



END

However, as it works when loading the sounds directly (see below), I suspect that especially the "MEMORY" parameter in _SNDOPEN has a glich in it.

Code: (Select All)

'DIM handles

DIM SHARED SND1&, SND2&, SND3&, SND4&, SND5&



DIM Gedaan AS INTEGER

Gedaan = 0



'LOAD the music files

SND1& = _SNDOPEN("Sound-1.MP3")

SND2& = _SNDOPEN("Sound-2.MP3")

SND3& = _SNDOPEN("Sound-3.MP3")

SND4& = _SNDOPEN("Sound-4.MP3")

SND5& = _SNDOPEN("Sound-5.MP3")

    PRINT "1 = sound 1"

    PRINT "2 = sound 2"

    PRINT "3 = sound 3"

    PRINT

    PRINT "ESC = END"

    a$ = INPUT$(1)



    IF a$ = CHR$(27) THEN Gedaan = 1



    IF a$ = "1" THEN

        IF SND1& THEN _SNDPLAY SND1&

    END IF



    IF a$ = "2" THEN

        IF SND2& THEN _SNDPLAY SND2&

    END IF



    IF a$ = "3" THEN

        IF SND3& THEN _SNDPLAY SND3&

    END IF



    IF a$ = "4" THEN

        IF SND4& THEN _SNDPLAY SND4&

    END IF



    IF a$ = "5" THEN

        IF SND5& THEN _SNDPLAY SND5&
