Audio / Synchronized playing of multiple ogg files

« on: April 12, 2011, 08:11:31 pm »

Hey there!

For a couple of time, I am trying to write a small program that does nothing than playing three .ogg files 100 % synchronized. Since it seems it is not possible, I wonder if I can use a multichannel ogg ( three active channels ), and change the volume of the channels to fade between the actual songs?

I want to use this to make it possible to fade in / out additional instrument tracks.

I tried the following simple code :

Code: [Select]

   music1.OpenFromFile("mansion-present-hihat.ogg");
     music2.OpenFromFile("mansion-present-hihat.ogg");
     music3.OpenFromFile("mansion-present-hihat.ogg");
     music1.Play();
     music2.Play();
     music3.Play();


I also tried to add the folowing :

Code: [Select]


     music1.SetPlayingOffset(0);
     music2.SetPlayingOffset(music1.GetPlayingOffset());
     music3.SetPlayingOffset(music2.GetPlayingOffset());


Any Ideas?

Network / response.GetField("Content-Length") returns 0

Damn sorry, I got WME and SFML mixed up. But thanks anyway

The problem with the external DLL call resides in WME, I asked the wrong guy here

Yeah I know, but can I load the page once and store it in a struct inside of the DLL? I thought the information gets lost after the external function call returns to WME...

Ah okay. So the solution would be :

If Status is okay, but lenght = 0, then request the whole page and return the string length, right?

Code: [Select]


long DLL_EXPORT getURLContentLength(const char * host, const char * page) {
    sf::Http http;
    http.SetHost(host);
    sf::Http::Request request(page);
    sf::Http::Response response = http.SendRequest(request);
    sf::Http::Response::Status status = response.GetStatus();
    std::string str;
    if (status == sf::Http::Response::Ok) {
        str = response.GetField("Content-Length");
    } else {
        str = "Request Error.";
    }
   std::cout << str;
}


This is the Function, the call is :

getURLContentLenght("http://www.sfml-dev.org", "features.php");

If I request the Pages Content, it works correctly, but I simply don't get the content-length.

I want do modify that function to only request the header, then getting the Content-Lenght: Field.

Right now I have to request the whole page once, then get the contentlength by str.length() in C++, and then I have to request the Content again ( with a getURLContent function ).

Hello!

I have a question, I have the following code :

Code: [Select]


    sf::Http http;
    http.SetHost(host);
    sf::Http::Request request(page);
    sf::Http::Response response = http.SendRequest(request);
    sf::Http::Response::Status status = response.GetStatus();
    std::string str;
    if (status == sf::Http::Response::Ok) {
        str = response.GetField("Content-Length");
    } else {
        str = "Request Error.";
    }
    return str.length();


Why does str always contains 0 ?

Ah okay, thanks

Maybe you should introduce a "News" Category into your Forum

General / How to share SFML games 'correctly' (DLLs issue)?

« on: November 11, 2010, 08:53:59 am »

Why use DLLs anyway? Simply link to the static libraries, and done.

EDIT:

And I don't think you have to care about some 5-10 Megs of DLL Files these days....where people usually have 500000 Megs of Diskspace

General / SFML2 Library Filenames

Hi there.

I just updated my SFML2 Version by SVN, and wondered why the Libraries are called "libsfml-xxx-s.a" instead of "libsfml2-xxx-s.a" again? Just an error, or another Change?

I'm using boost.thread myself for advanced stuff, it really doesn't matter in compile-time. You can believe me

Audio / alGenSources fails after creating a bunch of sf::Sounds

PLease don't dig up 1 year old threads for such questions. Use PM or start a new thread.

Graphics / separate process (not thread) dedicated to display?

« on: October 01, 2010, 09:22:18 am »

I don't know if I get your Idea correctly, but everything you mentioned is possible by using threads.

Using Exception handling and other stuff you can nearly catch every crash/freeze/hang whatever, so it wouldn't be a problem to display some kind of dialogue afterwards.

I also don't think how smart windows is, if processes directly share memory or pass data, I'd also guess some anti-vir-guards will make an alert if you try to read memory that has been written by another process ( if that is even possible, what I don't know ).

I wouldn't put too much effort into that Idea. It is so much work, just to handle an event that should never happen

General / Code::Blocks on Win7 - libgcc_s_dw2.dll not found.

First, you should compile static sfml libs yourself with the compiler you will use for compiling your app.

Second try adding -static-libstdc++ to the linker options.

Feature requests / SetCursor in sf::Window

I'd vote for it, it would be very helpful and is a standard-feature for such libs in my opinion.
