Shaun August, I have previously come across the same suggestion you mentioned: using QTKit's QTMovie class for playing/looping audio.
After implementing the QTKit approach which you can see here: https://github.com/razic/virus/blob/master/loop.rb the pause between each loop iteration was either the same or worse than a basic NSSound object with loops = true. Neither the NSSound or the QTMovie are sufficient for seamless looping. However, the Apple PlayFile example which I built/compiled in Xcode DOES loop perfectly seamless. How come I can't access a lot of the methods you see in the PlayFile example, even after loading the necessary frameworks? (I have BridgeSupport 2) I hope I'm simply doing something wrong. Would really appreciate anyone who can provide any sort of insight into converting PlayFile to macruby. PlayFile can be found here: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#samplecode/PlayFile/Introduction/Intro.html Thanks in advance, Zak On Wed, Feb 23, 2011 at 3:18 PM, <macruby-devel-requ...@lists.macosforge.org> wrote: > Send MacRuby-devel mailing list submissions to > macruby-devel@lists.macosforge.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macruby-devel > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > macruby-devel-requ...@lists.macosforge.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > macruby-devel-ow...@lists.macosforge.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of MacRuby-devel digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
