Re: [pygame] Pygame Mixer Crackle noise not an SDL_Mixer problem

Hi Lenard,
You can download the media/Pygame scripts for the Book from:
http://apress.com/book/downloadfile/3765

Chapter 10 has the audio example scripts; a bouncing balls script, and a 
jukebox.py script that plays .ogg files.
The jukebox.py script is very simple, it comes with "please put some .ogg 
file in the music folder", you can add the getout.ogg file to the media 
folder for the jukebox.

My program is a sort of amalgamation of both examples.  If your machine 
behaves the same as mine, then you should be able to hear the difference 
quite easily.

Yes, I built and tried it on XP. It sounds good. Now I just need a Python
equivalent. I don't have a copy of "Beginning Game Dev with Python and 
Pygame"
so I suppose I can translate the C++ back to Python.
