Forum: wxRuby evt_media_loaded not working on vista/windows 7

For some reason the evt_media_loaded is not being triggered on windows 7
and windows vista. However, the same code on windows xp works just fine.
Anybody have any ideas?

Anybody have any ideas? What I'm trying to do is auto play audio once it 
has loaded. My solution right now has been to just user a static timer 
and hope that the audio loads within that time. Once the timer counts 
down it will try to play the audio. However, if the audio is not done 
loading it will not work correctly

It appears to be a bug in wxWidgets:
http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/10958

We will have to wait for a fix in the underlying library - I don't have
Windows 7 so unfortunately I can't look into it myself.

There is some discussion on this page - but it sounds like the final
workaround is similar, ie call sleep(1) after load.
