Re: [sc-users] PlayBuf bug

[James Harkins <jamshark70@xxxxxxxxx>]

Seems nothing been done about this... I'm using a build from 12/21 and it still breaks.

What has not been mentioned before is that it crashes only when loop is set to 0, and it crashes at the end of the buffer. If you loop the file, it works fine.

s.boot;

// load a _stereo_ file
b = "sounds/a11wlk01-44.1-stereo.aiff".standardizePath);

// this is OK
"help-PlayBuf",{ arg out=0,bufnum=0;
Out.ar(out,
PlayBuf.ar(2,bufnum, BufRateScale.kr(bufnum), loop:1)
)
}).play(s,[\out, 0, \bufnum, b.bufnum]);

// this dies at end of file
"help-PlayBuf",{ arg out=0,bufnum=0;
Out.ar(out,
PlayBuf.ar(2,bufnum, BufRateScale.kr(bufnum))
)
}).play(s,[\out, 0, \bufnum, b.bufnum]);


s.boot;

b = "sounds/a11wlk01-44.1.aiff".standardizePath);

// this is OK, even not looping
"help-PlayBuf",{ arg out=0,bufnum=0;
Out.ar(out,
PlayBuf.ar(1,bufnum, BufRateScale.kr(bufnum))
)
}).play(s,[\out, 0, \bufnum, b.bufnum]);
