Re: [Vanadium-developers] DJ Mode progress

[Johannes L. <joh...@gm...>]

I just noticed that I didn't send this message to the list but only to 
Avital...



Hi,

nice to hear that your are still working on it! Panther is responsible 
for the code you have to touch. He was on vacation over the weekend and 
he is quite busy during this week. It could be possible that you have to 
extend our state machine by adding a new state. But we should wait for 
an answer from Panther.

If you have never coded ActionScript before you will discover some 
peculiarities :-) !

I have no idea what we should do with the the DJ sample sets. But we 
should have it online somewhere so that every dev can test it. I think 
it would be enough if we have the end of the first and the beginning of 
the second song.

BTW: The DJ mode should add two features:
- gapless playing
- crossfading between two songs


Cheers, Johannes
