When I develop my app I use different PC's and one one of then a lot of logging like this from the adb logcat:

Code: Select all

Is this a local hardware "problem" related so sound cards or something, since the game is running fine on other computer EMU's but not at home. As you can see from the times waisted on each call this really affects the game performance.

have you solve the problem? I got the same problem with you. Can you tell me the solution?

No, I never solved it. As a matter a fact the problem seemed to solve itself.

This was so long ago, so I really cannot tell if it fixed itself by code changes, or if it was a hardware problem on the local PC or if it was an old Android API issue.

Some times when coding I can see some "Flinger" lines in the adb -logcat console but never is such scale as I described in the post.

Oh, i see.
I still got this warning message, but I just simply ignore it since the media player works well.
I may try to update my sdk.

Here we go again... a little flingering with the audio!

W/AudioFlinger( 25): write blocked for 48 msecs
W/AudioTrack( 25): obtainBuffer timed out (is the CPU pegged?) user=0001c100,

W/AudioTrack( 25): *** SERIOUS WARNING *** obtainBuffer() timed out but didn't
need to be locked. We recovered, but this shouldn't happen (user=0001c100, serv
er=0001c001)

W/AudioFlinger( 25): write blocked for 50 msecs
W/AudioFlinger( 25): write blocked for 52 msecs
W/AudioFlinger( 25): write blocked for 51 msecs

Seems to me it happens due to some bug... which according to the log message should never happen.
Still don't know how to reproduce it on demand.

Hi ,i meet the same question. when i play game, the background music can play,but sometimes the background music can't stop. anyone know the answer?
