Custom music delay

[Enson]

Hi everyone!

I was really happy when I found the perfect music for my battle scenes on YouTube. So I was able to convert it to mp3 than made a copy in ogg and put the files in the BGM file and selected it in the system screen to be automatically played when battles occur.

Now, the problem I have is when the battles start, there's a delay of 4-5 secondes before the music begins.

I looked around the web and saw that it was a known problem, but was not able to get any solution... So, you are my last chance!

Thank you very much!

Not to ask but I have to be sure, the music file doesn't have a delay itself correct?

If not... have you tried any of the following?

I just read this also:

While either one doesn't appear to work by itself, if you use the latest version of the Preload Manager plugin - http://mvplugins.tordamian.com/plugins/preload-manager/ - along with the WebAudio Cache plugin at this link - http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/51422-webaudio-cache-experimental/ - for me, it represents a vast improvement, and what I would consider an acceptable solution.

Let me know if these work out for you.

Hello again CT_Bolt! I'll soon call you my personal hero, because the first you suggested link improved greatly the situation! I still have a 1 second delay for the music to start after a battle occurs, but I can live with that!

Let just hope now that it will be my last problem...! :)

Oh I'm very glad to hear it solved at least some of the issue.

I think I'll leave this thread open for now...
...at least for a little while in case we get more information from other users on this subject.
