Greetings
I have been playing with the code in
Developing Games in Java (Brackeen <i>et al.</i>), and I found some strange behavior on linux. I am running Mandriva 2006, and when I try to access the maximum number of lines, I always get one. Relevant code is:
<pre>
public static int getMaxSimultaneousSounds(AudioFormat playbackFormat) {
DataLine.Info lineInfo = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, playbackFormat);
Mixer mixer = AudioSystem.getMixer(null);
return mixer.getMaxLines(lineInfo);
}
</pre>
Has anyone else encountered this behavior or know a way around it?
