Hello.

I have problem with playing music (mp3).

The following works fine...

Global chnBG = loadsound(filename$)
chn = playsound (chnBG)
waitkey
End


...but this doesn't:

Global chnBG = loadsound(filename$)
chn = playsound(chnBG)

while not keyhit(1)

vwait

wend
end


While playing the music there's strange noise.
Like CD were rolling back and forth.

Once while the music started to play, the
graphics blinked a bit.

I have tested with several mp3s.

WinAmp plays fine these mp3s.


The system: Windows XP service pack 3, Intel Celeron M CPU 430 @ 1.73MHz,
Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipsset Family, DirectX 9.0.

No external userlibs/dlls.

Described problem seems to be my laptop's problem.
With my other computer I don't get any odd noise
while playing the music.

But the odd efect on my laptop made me think
that is it possible that with music-commands one
could break the computer (graphics blinking,
strange noise).
