Bill Moore, thank you for your in depth details.

Our programmers have been cranking our major upgrades to Vogone 3, Microstudio 3, Hoster 3.313 and working on Hoster 4 (for next year). My brain... and I'm sure our Beta Testers also... is in awe at how fast we have be cranking out the new code and fixing reported problems. Its been a real trip this month!

From your analysis, it does appear that a change made in Microstudio and ported over to the Hoster code didn't get handled properly under the "stop early" condition. I've documented this to be worked on first thing next Monday for 3.313 Beta 3.

Great job helping us do our jobs!

Sorry i forgot one thing

It all so shows its nasty head more so if the audio starts before the video.

It seames that a lot of early sunfly sf001 to sf100 have a lot of songs that have audio starting before video.

You might want to take a look at how hoster is handling the fact that audio is starting then the video starts.

BUT ITS NOT JUST SUNFLY !!!!

Just wondering if you guys found anything on the audio/buffer/stop button
problem ????

Bill,

Would you be so kind as to zip up one or two of these sunfly songs and attach it/them here? We are having no luck recreating this, and we believe it would be helpful to have an example of a KMA that causes this. Thanks!

Star Discs 1 - 72 were manufactured to start the Audio prior to the Graphics
starting.
All Star Discs 1 - 72 are imported from CD and, therefore logged in the
Songs.MDB as a CDCDG Import.
Upon starting PLAY of any Star Disc 1 - 72 CDCDG Imported Trk, the Audio
begins, then stops, then starts over from the beginning.

It's as if Hoster's CDCDG Player sees the Audio only...starts the
Audio...then, when the Graphics queue in, Hoster's CDCDG Player references
both, Audio and Graphics, and plays the Song, from the beginning, as if that
was the actual starting point.

After the Audio has started the second time, it continues, in SYNC with the
Graphics, to the end of the song.

All tested Star Disc 1 - 72 CDCDG Imported Trks play correctly in Hoster
v3.301

Current v3.313 still has music starting and stopping at the beginning of the songs on Star Discs 1-72 imported via CD. (CDCDG)

Did you try re-importing them with 3.313?
