Rob,

You could add a method to CAAudioFileReader to start play at a specified packet number. Notice that SetCurrentPosition is already translating the double into a packet number, which shows you what to do to start play at a specific packet.

As for where to stop playing ... you could add a member to CAAudioFileRead to say where to stop, then modify CAAudioFileReader::ReadBuffer to notice when it's reached that point and limit / stop reading accordingly. Notice that the call to b->UpdateAfterRead with nPackets==0 will signify that you've reached the end.

For linear PCM, packets == frames; the code uses packets everywhere because it does handle seeking within a file by packet number for encoded formats, but for those formats, it doesn't quite know how to get to a specific frame index.

Hi,

This should be easy.. All I want to do is modify afplay
(/Developer/Examples/CoreAudio/Services/AudioFileTools/) (well it doesn't have
to be afplay, it just has to work already), in order to play a part of an audio
file. I just want a command line utility that plays from starttime to endtime.
It shouldn't be hard, but SetCurrentPosition is a double between 0-1, and I
can't seem to find a divisor that will allow me to quantify start time in
seconds into this double value.

I know I need sleep, but can anyone help?

Kind Regards,
Rob
