Multiple Streams Simultaneously
« on: June 25, 2012, 10:10:56 pm »
Hi, I'm making a game where instruments drop in and out depending on in-game circumstances by having them stream at the same time and then changing the volume to 0 or 100, depending on if they're being used.

However, there is a delay between the instruments, and I was wondering if there was a way to sync all streams' positions to that of one stream, so they are all in sync.

I'm using SFML 1.6, and have 6 .oggs playing at the same time.

Thanks!

No, sorry. Maybe you should look at other (more complete) audio engines, such as FModEx.

Oh, okay. I'll look into that.

Thank you for the reply!

Edit: For anyone else that may have this problem, limiting the framerate to 60 seemed to get rid of some of the desync.

Yep. FModEx is The Monster of the Audio (:o)... But the license is restrictive and it is not open-source.  :-\

cAudio engine is an advanced C++ wrapper around the OpenAL API with zlib license. Perhaps you want to take a look.
