Hi, at work, we're unable to use alSourcePause() to pause sounds, and in any case we might want to start the sound with an offset. We're performing a "resume" by doing alSourcei(this->sourceId, AL_SAMPLE_OFFSET, this->sampleOffset); with a sample offset that we retrieved with alGetSourcei(). We tried using AL_SEC_OFFSET, AL_BYTE_OFFSET...

After the sound is finished playing I would like to save it to a buffer for further use in openAL, is that possible? The only way I see right now is to save the spe...
I'm doing iOS development and trying to reuse a stopped OpenAL streaming source for another streaming sound, but sometimes the source is showing AL_BUFFERS_PROCESSED remaining even after it's been stopped and cleared. I'm using the following code: alSourceStop(source_id); alSourcei(source_id, AL_BUFFER, AL_NONE); ALint buffers_process...
