But I have never tested with audio files this short and looped completely.
Ah! Gotcha. Yeah....We run a lot of short drum machine loops in Gospel music, so when I found out about this app, I was EXTREMELY excited.
Do you have crossfade settings enabled?
No, I don't, because I need the looping to be seamless, regardless of tempo change.
Can you maybe check if this issue still occurs with a longer loop (maybe 8 bars)?
The longest length I have is a 4 bar loop. I just tried reproducing the issue, and couldn't when not adjusting tempo ✅.
However, adjusting the tempo of the 4 bar loop caused the looping to stop, and the next song to be queued. ❌
So, your hypothesis about preparation time seems to be spot-on. It appears there's a calculation that takes into account:
- Current song (loop) duration.
- hardcoded preparation time
Increasing the tempo gets you to the preparation time threshold faster, which bypasses the loop flag logic.
That said, it appears your song Repeat logic isn't dependent on preparation time. This would explain why I don't have issues with loops discontinuing when using Repeat. The only downside of Repeat is that it doesn't behave well with tempo changes (tempo increase: gaps in loop, tempo decrease: premature looping).
