Hi.

I’m writing an Mp3 player and I have a problem with SoundChannel class.

These are my pause and resume functions:

```auto

private var nPausePos:Number;
public function pause()
{
    nPausePos = _soundChannel.position;
    _soundChannel.stop();
}
public function resume()
{
    _soundChannel = _sound.play(nPausePos);
    _soundChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, soundFinished);
}

```

So… The problem is \_soundChannel.position and \_sound.length values won’t be equal when the sound finished **if I call pause and resume functions.**.

What’s the thing I’m doing wrong???

Thanks…
