Re: [pygame] Pygame playing music too quickly?

[Rene Dudfield <renesd@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey,

richard and I talked on irc, and this fixed it:
Call this before calling pygame.init() or pygame.mixer.init()

pygame.mixer.pre_init(44100,-16,2, 1024 * 3)

This also fixes sound on some winxp machines.  However it does
increase the latency a little, because the buffer is larger.  So
sounds take a fraction longer to start playing.
