Methods > Playlists > PlayListItemVolAutomSetMixPos method

Remarks

Sets volume automation mixing positions to an item of the playlist. Current mixing positions can be obtained through the PlayListItemVolAutomGetMixPos method.

The volume point can have been previously added through the PlayListItemVolAutomPointAdd method or as a result of a playlist loading through the PlayListLoad method.

This method will return an error if the playlist has not been created with the PlayListCreateAutomation method or loaded with the PlayListLoad or PlayListLoadSync methods having the nMode parameter set to PLAYLIST_AUTOMATION_MODE.

For further details about playlists management see the How to create and manage a playlist tutorial.

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.
