Get GetSourceMultiplePlayPositions() to work on Unity 5.6.1?

+1 vote

Using GetSourceMultiplePlayPositions() we tried to track all source play positions of an event, but we didn't get it work.  This is our current implementation:

Post Event code as used for GetSourcePlayPosition (works for GetSourcePlayPosition  but apparently not for GetSourceMultiplePlayPositions):

testEventId = AkSoundEngine.PostEvent(AK.EVENTS.TEST, gameObject, (uint)(AkCallbackType.AK_EnableGetSourcePlayPosition | AkCallbackType.AK_EndOfEvent), FinishedPlaying, null);

Call to GetSourceMultiplePlayPositions Method:

AKRESULT result = AkSoundEngine.GetSourceMultiplePlayPositions(testEventId, audioNode, mediaID, msTime, ref io_Positions, true);

'result' was always Ak.Fail in our tests. Is there something we are missing or is the method just not supported for the Unity version of wwise?

Hi there, I'm having a similar issue. Did you ever find out a solution to this?

Hi Blake!

This is some time ago now, but we managed it to work. If I remember correctly, we did not initalize the array of audioNode, mediaID, msTime to the same size as setin the io_Positions parameter. In our working solution, we set io_Positions=5 and the arrays audioNode, mediaID, msTime have the same size(eg.  uint[] mediaID = new uint[5];). Though badly documented the method works as expected.

Hope that helps you...
