Status: Open

Issue hasn't been assigned a status value.
Descriptive Problem Summary:
This issue is present as of the 507.1284 build. There is no problem when playing via the Dream Seeker.

Setting a sound() to repeat doesn't work in the webclient. The sound just plays once, then never repeats.


Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
Load this demo into the webclient and click on the "Sound_Loop_Test" verb to see the bug: http://files.byondhome.com/SilkGames/bugs/ NEStalgiaWebclientBugs_v1_src.zip


Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:
From the linked demo:
src <<  sound('music_loop.ogg',repeat=1,channel=0,volume=50)
Well, this is curious. In the debugger, which runs Dartium (a modified Chrome), the audio loops just fine.

What I've found on this says it's a Chrome bug. Chrome 44 supposedly doesn't have the issue. I'll leave this open in case any new info pops up though.
Thanks! I believe that 42 is currently the latest public release of Chrome on Windows, but I didn't even think to try it in Firefox etc. I'll let you know if it pops up again in any other browsers.
