</div>I would try increasing the internal buffer of readanysf~.<br>
<br>
See the readanysf~ help file<br>
<br>
the following will start it with 2 audio channels, each with 32 buffer<br>
chunks of 256 samples.<br>
<br>
[readanysf~ 2 32 256(<br>
<br>
If increasing that doesn't solve it, it may be your PD buffer that needs<br>
increasing.<br>

<br>
</div>again, see the help file. There is a "ready" message as well as a<br>
"cache" message that will give you info on when a file is ready to play<br>
and how much has already pre-buffered (from stream or disk).<br>
