sound sometimes breaks up

nishiokas

I am creating a QML application that plays sound by clicking "Play Sound Button".
I use "QSoundEffect"
and this application have function.
function has hard work.

I click button then do function.
sound breaks up.

code like this.

MouseArea {
onClicked: {
QSoundEffect effect;
effect.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("engine.wav"));
effect.setLoopCount(QSoundEffect::Infinite);
effect.setVolume(0.25f);
effect.play();
}
}
function() {
//hard work( TCP/IP communication)
waitRecieveSomething()
}

I'd like to here clear sound.
How should I do?

thanks.

Hi,

Shouldn't that "hard working" function be moved in its own thread to avoid blocking the main thread and likely the sound effect ?

Thanks for reply!
I think you are right. but it's so difficult.
Because this application so big and it has many "hard work".

I'd like to keep sound in "hard work".
it's impossible?

@nishiokas
Why don't you move your SoundEffects in its own thread instead?
