Re: [pygame] pygame mixer problem upgrading to ubuntu intrepid



Still not working. I'll try rebooting to see if that fixes it :S

Has anyone had this problem?

Strike that, it's still delaying. If I raise it it starts running too fast. I'm re-installing pygame to see if that will fix it.

pygame.mixer.pre_init(44100*4) seams to fix it. Is there a global variable I can change to fix this or something? It also appears to be a local problem with my OS, so distributing games might get painful...

Thanks :-)

Hey, thanks for the reply :-)

I already had version 1.8.1.

Adding pygame.mixer.pre_init(1024*3) [before pygame.init()] delays the sound even more, and the playback is distorted. I also tried 1024 and 1024*2 and got the same (or similar) results :S

You probably just upgraded pygame from 1.7.1 to 1.8.1.  1.8.1
increased the default sound buffer size to avoid various hiccups in
sound playback.  (It was supposed to be in 1.8.0, but a bug caused it
to decrease and be stuck there.)  You can override it by calling
pygame.mixer.init or .pre_init and giving a buffer size.  Values get
rounded up to the next power of two.

Someone with SVN access might want to fix the default, by the way.
It's set to 1024*3 (=3072), but the power-of-two rounding makes that
effectively 4096.  The docs also say the buffer size "must be a power
of two", which the default isn't.  And that should really read "should
be", since it's rounded up otherwise.
