Egg Deng updated CB-129:
------------------------
Description:
Using the Media object, it is possible to play one or more audio files no more
than a maximum of 7 times, at which point it becomes necessary to force quit
the app to continue to have audio. This is the old phonegap issue #208, which
was supposed to be fixed in 1.1.0.
It happens presumably because "there are a finite amount of OpenCore instances
for media playback"
(http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.0.0/phonegap_media_media.md.html). The
documentation recommends using media.release() to free resources, but this
function is broken. Instead of releasing the resource just used, it tries to
release the next resource to be made available and so, depending on where it is
used, either breaks audio altogether or has no effect at all. Once the limit is
reached, the bug will also prevent any other applications from using audio
until the original application is terminated.
