The [_SNDGETPOS](_SNDGETPOS) function returns the current playing position in seconds using a handle from [_SNDOPEN](_SNDOPEN).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Syntax
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> position = [_SNDGETPOS](_SNDGETPOS)(handle&)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Returns the current playing position in seconds from an open sound file.
|
||
|
|
* If a sound isn't playing, it returns 0.
|
||
|
|
* If a sound is paused, it returns the paused position.
|
||
|
|
* For a looping sound, the value returned continues to increment and does not reset to 0 when the sound loops.
|
||
|
|
* In versions **prior to build 20170811/60**, the sound identified by handle& must have been opened using the [_SNDOPEN](_SNDOPEN) to use this function.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example(s)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To check the current playing position in an MP3 file, use [_SNDPLAY](_SNDPLAY) with [_SNDGETPOS](_SNDGETPOS) printed in a loop:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```vb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SoundFile& = _SNDOPEN("YourSoundFile.mp3") '<<< your MP3 sound file here!
|
||
|
|
_SNDSETPOS SoundFile&, 5.5 'set to play sound 5 1/2 seconds into music
|
||
|
|
_SNDPLAY SoundFile& 'play sound
|
||
|
|
Do: _LIMIT 60
|
||
|
|
LOCATE 5, 2: PRINT "Current play position> "; _SNDGETPOS(SoundFile&)
|
||
|
|
LOOP UNTIL _KEYDOWN(27) OR NOT _SNDPLAYING(SoundFile&) 'ESC or end of sound exit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
