soundFile.jump(0) starts a new instance of the sound, instead of restarting the sound. · Issue #44 · processing/processing-sound (original) (raw)

to reproduce prepare an mp3 called sound.mp3, 10 seconds long. Use the following sketch:

import processing.sound.*;
SoundFile sound;

void setup() {
  sound = new SoundFile(this, "sound.mp3"); 
  sound.loop();
}

void draw() {
  background(255);
}

void mousePressed() {
  // sound.stop(); // does not help the problem
  sound.jump(0);
}

Run, wait until the sound starts to play. Click the mouse, observe what happens. Wait a few seconds and click the mouse again, observe what happens.

expected behaviour: with every mouse click, the sound restarts at the start of the song.
actual behaviour:

• The first mouse click restarts the sound.
• Subsequent mouse clicks trigger a new instance of the sound, while older instances continue to play.
