Parameter

Description

nPlayer

Number representing the zero-based index of the involved player

nItem

Number representing the zero-based index of the item inside the playlist. The number of available items can be obtained using the PlayListGetCount method.

nPositionUnit

The unit used to define the position parameters fStartPos,fMixPos and fEndPos below.

Supported values are the following:

Mnemonic constant	Value	Meaning
VA_POS_UNIT_SECONDS	0	Positions are expressed in seconds
VA_POS_UNIT_PERCENTAGE	1	Positions are expressed in percentage
VA_POS_UNIT_MILLISECONDS	2	Positions are expressed in milliseconds

fStartPos

Reference that, on return from the method call, will contain the start position expressed in nPositionUnit. This parameter is the equivalent of the StartPosSec/StartPosMs/StartPosPerc attributes of the Item sub-key of the PDJ format.

fMixPos

Reference that, on return from the method call, will contain the mixing position expressed in nPositionUnit. This parameter is the equivalent of the MixPosSec/MixPosMs/MixPosPerc attributes of the Item sub-key of the PDJ format.

fEndPos

Reference that, on return from the method call, will contain the end position expressed in nPositionUnit. This parameter is the equivalent of the EndPosSec/EndPosMs/EndPosPerc attributes of the Item sub-key of the PDJ format.

Return value

Value	Meaning

Negative value	An error occurred (see the LastError property for further error details)
enumErrorCodes.ERR_NOERROR (0)	The method call was successful.
