## Remarks

For guidance on XMA context loops, see [Guidelines for using SRC for PCM and XMA data](/build/console-features/audio/overviews/acp-overview#ID4EUPAC) in [ACP overview](/build/console-features/audio/overviews/acp-overview).

To set the number of subframes to skip, use [SetShapeXmaLoopSubframeSkip](/reference/audio/shapexmacontext/functions/setshapexmaloopsubframeskip).

For more information, see the [XMA](/build/console-features/audio/overviews/shape-overview#ID4EYD) section of [Overview of SHAPE](/build/console-features/audio/overviews/shape-overview).
