Hi North, was that using the LoadSound method, or streaming with CreateAudioStream?
The LoadSound way will take various amounts of time to produce the entire song in one go, like loading an ogg file. some mods/xms are very long, even up to 10mins+! so creating ~100mb+ of audio can take a long time. you could watch task manager to see how big the sound gets.
also the more channels in the song the longer it'll take to create, Loading the entire song in one go is really only useful for reasonably small mods/xms.
but if your streaming and getting that amount of pause, please send me a copy of the file if possible, and I'll see whats going on.
*EDIT* Thanks xlsior, I think *maybe* I was over estimating the number of mac/linux users on here?, dont know really, guess I was over reacting.
