Stratagus cannot play some sounds

[Andre Novellino Gouvêa]

I am using version 2.2.7.

Stratagus crashes when trying to play certain sounds. I tried to use the sounds from the GPL game Battle for Wesnoth in Wargus, and most worked. But some unfortunately crashed the game. Here are two examples, one music and one sound effect:

Since these sounds are both well-made and released under the GPL, it would be nice if Stratagus could play them without crashing.

I found out that this issue is related to the frequency of the sounds - I was able to change the sounds to use a lower frequency (11025, the same that Wargus' sounds use) and they worked.

Yes, Stratagus supports only 11025, 22050, or 44100 Hz sounds. This could be fixed when Stratagus will be updated to SDL 2.0 and gain support for SDL_mixer (maybe in distant future :) )
So, I may suggest this issue has been solved?

[Andre Novellino Gouvêa (andre-ng)]

Thanks for the clarification, cybermind! How about tagging this as "wishlist" then instead of "solved"? It seems the most appropriate choice to me, considering that support for these sounds is something that could be implemented for (distant) future versions of the engine.
