Transition not sample-accurate, the new source is shorter than two audio frames. Use a software codec to support this case.

This error occurs when a Sequence Container or a Random Container sets up a sample-accurate transition between two sounds but the second sound is too short for hardware decoders to handle properly. A "short" sound is defined as being smaller than two audio frames. The length of the audio frame is defined at the sound engine's initialization by the value of AkInitSettings.uNumSamplesPerFrame. This is typically 512 or 1024 samples (10ms or 21.1ms).

Recommended resolution steps:

  • Use a software codec (Vorbis, ADPCM, or PCM) for the two sounds.

  • Make sure all sounds involved in the sample-accurate transition are longer than two frames.

  • Use a different transition type in the Sequence or Random container.
