Hey, so I’m now looking at how to set up background music in rsound with the ability to switch tracks. Below is the suggestion from John Clements that seems right: >> I’m guessing you’re looking for an imperative API that looks something like >> this: >> >> (start-playing! stream sound at-time #:fade-in time-duration) => token >> (stop-playing! stream token at-time #:fade-out time-duration)
AFAICT this isn’t already in existence in the rsound library. My impression is that we will need to build this on top of signals and networks — but I want to check that, before we pour the time into doing it. I’m thinking signals & networks because we tried to build it using pstreams, and ran into a snag when trying to stop playback and switch to a new track: ;; Given a pstream bgmusic and rsounds bgsong1, bgsong2, the following Interactions ;; occur: > (pstream-play bgmusic bgsong1) "sound is queued" > (stop) > (pstream-play bgmusic bgsong2) "sound is queued" ;; BUT NO SOUND PLAYS. > ;; - end interactions - So, am I correct in thinking that pstreams aren’t sufficient for what I’m attempting? Is there another way to stop playback, other than calling (stop)? Thanks, Jordan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
