Hi,
mainly, when you stream an SWA file, the preload only preloads the amount
specified by the preloadBuffer (In your case only the first 5 seconds of
your file is preloaded). When you call stop(), the sound is still playing
until the preload buffer is empty. If you call Play() after, Director
preloads 5 seconds (in your case) and then starts to play again.
Hope it helps,
