Audio / Re: Sf::Sound for music

« on: February 02, 2014, 06:52:37 pm »

Solved
The OpenAL.dll's for 32 and 64 bit are swapped in SFML downloads.

In the 32-bit version (i tried only Windows) there is the 64-bit OpenAL (454kb, and the 32-bit version is 410kb).
Also in the source file download the dll's are swapped.

Please someone tell Laurent, i also get a crash when i tried the new 32-bit version on GitHub.

The main problem is that when i try to use the 64-bit Libsnd i get a crash, this not happens with OpenAL.
Additionally as i said i have no problem with my main computer, i get this issues with the other one.

My fault, now i tried Sf::Music and i get the same issue :/

The specs of the computer are not relevant, i played and developed games for years with it without problems.
Regarding the music i tried a lot of files and formats but i get the same behaviour.
I create also an empty project with only a single music played and i get the same issue.

Could it be an OpenAl/Libsnd problem?

Yes, the music does not play smoothly, like it's not played in an other thread (the cracks and distorsions are dued to the lag of the sound).

I tried also some games on the same pc and the audio works properly.

No, i don't.
I have to play music with Sf::Sound (for a reason i can't explain here) but when i do this on slow computers i get a very bad sound.
Is Sf::Sound played in a separate thread?

I think Sf::Sound does not stream the file, Sf::Music does this, am i wrong?

I have to use the Sf::Sound to play music instead of sound effects, loading first the entire file from memory.
However on my slow computer the music plays terribly (cracks, blocks, etc).

Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.

Thank you for the reply, so there is nothing that can be done to fix this...

I'm sure it's a 'glDeleteTextures' crash because i tried to call it explicitly, retrieving the texture ID and i got the same crash with the same address corruption.
So the only way to load textures in a different thread is to load only the sf::Image object, set a flag and then in the main thread build the sf::Texture object. Is it correct?

I think i've found the cause of this issue.

I've discovered that the crash happens on 'glDeleteTextures' function, but it's really curious that it happens only on sf::RenderTexture destructor and not on sf::Texture one.
So i tried to create a Sf::Texture on a separate thread (sf::Thread) and i got the crash.

I have not looked at SFML source and i don't know if it's loaded on a separate thread, please let me know, it could finally explain this issue.

I've also found some other threads about this issue, for example:

Because if i compile in release mode i get also:

Code: [Select]

'TestSfml.exe': Loaded 'Path\TestSfml\Release\sfml-graphics-2.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.
'TestSfml.exe': Loaded 'Path\TestSfml\Release\sfml-window-2.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.
'TestSfml.exe': Loaded 'Path\TestSfml\Release\sfml-system-2.dll', Binary was not built with debug information.

Regarding the second question, i get a crash also on a sf::Texture destructor only if before i create a RenderTexture.

There are SFML .pdb files, but not ntdll.dll ones, i've uploaded my project and Laurent said it's ok, i've linked correct debug libraries.
This is my ouput:

'TestSfml.exe': Loaded 'C:\Windows\SysWOW64\msasn1.dll', Cannot find or open the PDB file
And so SFML symbols are loaded correctly.

I noticed a line in the output that can be useful:
Invalid address specified to RtlFreeHeap("useless since it changes everytime", 03740730)
The invalid address is not the RenderTexture address, the second parameter are internal flags.

The call stack is:
->   ntdll.dll!77ea0724()    
    ntdll.dll!77e6295a()    
    ntdll.dll!77ea177f()    
    ntdll.dll!77e5a967()    
>   ntdll.dll!77e09f15()    
'RenderTexture::create' mess up the memory and the application crashes when deleting the renderTexture.

I have used the debugger obviously, and if i haven't post any detail about the crash is because there aren't.
It's a ntdll.dll crash, and without a PDB file no source file gets displayed.

What are you saying? Please keep your frustration out.

So, i have no problems with native OpenGL framebuffers, neither with SDL ones and i think that it's a way to fix it, but since i'm the only with this issue it's comprensible this is not a priority. And i'm forced to pass over SFML at this point.

So Laurent do you think this issue can be solved?
If you want i can test some code on my computer, or whatever you need.

Sincerely i haven't much time to switch to another framework right now, and also i think SFML is better that other C++ "competitors".

What graphics hardware does this crash on? Intel are famous for poor OpenGL driver support, I am sure any problems are because of this.

We have our SFML apps on roughly 50,000 industrial PC systems using different hardware, running ~18 hrs a day, every day, and no problems - except for systems with Intel drivers where we've had to make so many changes to get it stable.

Yes it's certainly this kind of issue, the graphics card i have is a custom version of Intel HD Graphics and for most of 3D games for example i need to switch to my second computer in order to play. This computer however is not powerful enough for my work.
Anyway, the crashes happen on a simple framebuffer and i think there is a way to fix it.

Yes i do, i tried also with the 2.0 version.
I'm sure that it's a memory issue, for my project sometimes i don't get the crash if i load a certain number of textures before, or i get the crash only in debug/release mode, inside/outside the editor and so on.
