Problem with sound in Gideros (pauses game slightly) [Solved]

Tom2012

Got a problem with Gideros where playing a sound causes a slight but noticeable blip in performance than causes a jerk in the game. I'm using slightly modified code from the example game.

-- sounds   --sounds sounds = {}   --load all your sounds here --after that you can simply play them as sounds.play("hit") sounds.fall = Sound.new("Sounds/fall.mp3")   --play sounds sounds.play = function(sound) sounds[sound]:play() end

Then I use:

sounds.play("fall")

What do I need to do to fix this?

Thanks

Tom

Ah, I am such a numpty.

I forgot I'd read this thread a while ago:

http://www.giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/331/what-is-the-best-sound-format

And I was using mp3s instead of wavs for sound FX.

Changed to wavs and boom no performance impact.
