I wrote the gb.sdl.sound component in Gambas 1.0, and I didn't work on it 
since. But it used to work before.

I don't think that sdl plays the MP3 on its own, but uses another library. So 
the problem may be inside sdl.

Otherwise, the crash when moving a paused song better looks like a bug in my 
code.

If you have a gambas project that I can use to reproduce all the problems, it 
will help me to fix the bugs, or at least to see where they come from.
