Found the problem: FSReadFork returns eofErr when the file is finished.
However, we check its return value for errors, and if anything but
noErr occurs, the reader thread aborts its current iteration. That is
bad, because it aborts before it can ever set the flag which tells that
the file is over (also, any remaining data which FSRead did return is
lost - so you'd not hear about to 4 seconds from the end of the file.
Furthermore, the computed data size was 8 bytes to high (I forgot to
account for the fact that the size of an (A)IFF chunk always contains
the chunk header & size fields, too). This is enough to make it work.
However, the end condition is rather fragile, so I tuned some other
things to be pessimistic (check for <= 0 instead of == 0, when eofErr
is encountered enforce mReadFilePosition == mFileLength). You never
know...
The attached patch fixes the issue for me.

================================================================= Patch version 0.9 of SDL(Simple DirectMedia Layer) for Nano-X API ================================================================= Authors: Hsieh-Fu Tsai, clare@setabox.com Greg Haerr, greg@censoft.com This patch is against SDL version 1.2.4. It enhances previous patch 0.8 by providing direct framebuffer access as well as dynamic hardware pixel type support, not requiring a compile-time option setting for different framebuffer modes. Tested against Microwindows version 0.89pre9. Older Microwindows versions =========================== If running on a version older than Microwindows 0.89pre9, the following items might need to be patched in Microwindows. 1. Patch src/nanox/client.c::GrClose() It fixes the client side GrClose(). In the original version, GrOpen() can only be called once. When the GrOpen() is called at the second time, the program will terminate. In order to prevent this situation, we need to insert "nxSocket = -1" after "close(nxSocket)" in GrClose(). If you do not have this problem, you may skip this step. 2. Patch src/nanox/clientfb.c to return absolute x,y coordinates when using GrGetWindowFBInfo(). Copy the version 0.89pre9 of src/nanox/clientfb.c to your system, or configure using --disable-nanox-direct-fb. ============= Quick Install ============= 1. ./configure --disable-video-x11 --disable-video-fbcon \ --enable-video-nanox \ --with-nanox-pixel-type=[rgb/0888/888/565/555/332/pal] 2. make clean 3. make 4. make install (as root) ============ Nitty-gritty ============ --enable-nanox-direct-fb Use direct framebuffer access --enable-nanox-debug Show debug messages --enable-nanox-share-memory Use shared-memory to speed up When running multi-threaded applications using SDL, such as SMPEG, set THREADSAFE=Y in Microwindows' config file, to enable GrXXX() system call critical section support. ============================================= Some programs can be used to test this patch. ============================================= 1. http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/atris (a tetris-like game) 2. http://www.libsdl.org/projects/newvox/ 3. http://www.libsdl.org/projects/xflame/ 4. http://www.libsdl.org/projects/optimum/ 5. http://www.gnugeneration.com/software/loop/ 6: http://www.lokigames.com/development/smpeg.php3 (SMPEG version 0.4.4) ========= Todo List ========= 1. Create hardware surface 2. Create YUVOverlay on hardware 3. Use OpenGL 4. Gamma correction 5. Hide/Change mouse pointer 6. Better window movement control with direct fb access 7. Palette handling in 8bpp could be improved ===================== Supporting Institutes ===================== Many thanks to go to Setabox Co., Ltd. and CML (Communication and Multimedia Laboratory, http://www.cmlab.csie.ntu.edu.tw/) in the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering of National Taiwan University for supporting this porting project. Century Embedded Technologies (http://embedded.censoft.com) for this patch. =================== Contact Information =================== Welcome to give me any suggestion and to report bugs.
