TI.Media.createSound() and a loading indicator before the sounds starts

As the sound object loads the entire media resource in memory before playing, I need a loading indicator that hides as soon as the sound starts playing. The sound files are not huge but it takes a good second before they start and I want to avoid confusion.

Is that even possible? Thanks!

  • could possibly use the progress or changed events on the sound but I'm not sure

  • this seems to work

      playButton.addEventListener('click', function()
  {
    activityIndicator.show();
    sound.play();
    activityIndicator.hide();
  });

    • Does it work? My installation is broken (yet again) and I can't test it right now.
