[Android] Gaps between loops

[kyrylenko]

Hey! I've tried using .mp3 and .ogg file types but the player is still looping with gaps. Is there any workaround?

@kyrylenko the same thing happens to me, did you solve it somehow?

Any update on this issue ?

Can't believe this issue still exists 🙄 I'm experiencing the same for iOS.

Facing the same issue. It ruins the user experience.

I overcame the issue with below custom loop:

1. Note the exact duration of each of your sounds in milliseconds.
2. Create a setInterval method and pass the millisecond of your sounds.
3. Inside setInterval, call the method player.seek(0) to play from the beginning.
4. Whenever you want to stop the player, simply clearInterval(selectedSound.interval).

Code:

selectedSound.interval = BackgroundTimer.setInterval(() => {
                selectedSound.player && selectedSound.player.seek(0)
            }, selectedSound.duration);

This is not an ideal solution and it does have a tiny gap from time to time but it is much better than the gap in the looping provided in the library.
