Description mattreecebentley 2014-05-17 04:37:04 UTC 
According to the documentation, if a fadeout is applied to a playing music stream, and then a new music file is played, Mixer will wait until the first stream has finished fading out before playing the second.

This is correct.

However it also freezes all program activity while it fades out.

This does not occur if the fadeout is not followed by a play, or if the second stream of music is played without fading out the first.
