I am using ig.game.music to play bgm, and there is one problem that I want to solve.

When the music loops, there is a little interval occurs.

Is there any way to avoid this?

I am making short looping musics and this interval is quite annoying when it is looping.

I'm not aware of any way to avoid this issue. However I'm interested in the solution if anybody knows of one...

I wrote a simple wrapper around Howler 2.0 I am using for Shadows of Adam that seems to fix this issue:

ig.module(
    'impact.audioManager'
)


.defines(function(){
        AudioManager = function(){
            // List of loaded music
            this._audio = {};

            this._musicID = null;
            this._currentTrack = null;

            this._musicIDFade = null;

            this._s = ig.global.Config.Audio;

        };

        AudioManager.prototype.addMusic = function( name, id, data ){
            if ( !data ) data = {};

            this._audio[id] = new Howl({
                src: [ this._s.MUSIC_ROOT_PATH + name + ".mp3", this._s.MUSIC_ROOT_PATH + name + ".ogg" ],
                sprite: data.sprite,
                loop: data.loop || false,

            return this.getID( id ).rate( rate, this.getMusicID() );
        };

    });

Example of addMusic:

            // DEFINE MUSIC HERE
            // Format: "fileName", "internalID", [ data ]
            // Title music
            ig.global.audioManager.addMusic('title', 'title',
                {
                    sprite: {
                        intro: [0, 69999],
                        loop: [70000, 80000]}
                }
            );

Music is in two parts. Intro part plays from 0 milliseconds to 69,999 milliseconds. At the end of that part, it loops from 70,000 milliseconds to 80,000 milliseconds forever.

Thank you lTyl, I will try this!

Good luck! This is a straight copy+paste from my project, so make sure you remove all the debug code and config file references before using it. You also need Howler 2.0 (1.0 will not work)
