RE: [Plib-devel] SL playMusic() callbacks don't work

[Vallevand, M. K <Mar...@UN...>]

I've tried this in two places...

In my game it didn't work.  So, I fixed up the mod test program
that comes with the PLIB docs.  I just added a simple callback
that prints "got here" and changed the loopMusic call.  It never
"gets here".  The same code in my game for samples works.  I
also fixed up the playSample demo and it "gets here".

It was too late last night to debug PLIB, so I thought I'd ask
today.

Regards.
