Hi René!
Thanks for your support. We're always very proud and honored to see awesome
use of the software like you guys do!
Your problem has been raised before. I believe you might be able to do it
by tackling the issue from the other end: could you try to trigger the
source.skip when switching away from the file-based source? Something like:
def transition(old,new) =
source.skip(old)
sequence([old,new])
end
That way, the old source would consume all of its remaining buffer before
switching away and also have time to prepare a new track for the next time
you switch back to it..
Hope this help,
Romain
