media-not-smooth -- When you play an audio, the timeline stops every 10 sec.

[deyan]

When you play audio or video, the timeline stops every 10 seconds. If you use background audio and play the timeline twice, on the second time first 12 seconds are not heard.

The problem is only with some formats... like mp3

• The problems:
  • Some of the media formats have bad packets in the beginning (for example mp3s and movs) and a runtime_exception is thrown in the native code, so when the buffer is been filled, the operation is restarted as many times as the number of these packets is.
  • The audio is bad when fulling the big buffer (10000ms)
  • You can not insert video files as audio frames in sophie. The problem is that these files are not count as media files from the FileDialog so they don't have an ImportBinDataType.
• The solutions:
  • Catch try-catch the exception when calling the decodeAudio function and continue with the next packet instead. The problem is solved.
  • Also the audio quality is better when the buffer is 1000+200, there is no bad audio anymore, and the most of the videos play better.
  • Let the media files that are playable, but are not in the list of the file types in the FileDialog have ImportBinDataType.LINKED by default.

• Found problems for fixing:
  • Some video formats have problems with the audio when the buffer extra is under 1200-1300 ms must be added as a bug.

The implementation is on pap's machine so when he review it he can commit it :)

• Seems acceptable.
• It would be better if you had written that the decodeAudio function is in media_decoder.h or the exact class :)
• Commited to trunk in [8470] and [8479].
