Name
ControlPlayback() — Plays a file, with the ability to fast forward and rewind the file
Synopsis
ControlPlayback(filename[,skipms[,ffchar[,rewchar[,stopchar[,pausechr]]]]])
Plays back a given filename (without the file extension), while
allowing the caller to move forward and backward through the file by
pressing ffchar and
rewchar. By default, you can use * and #
to rewind and fast-forward the playback of the file. If
stopchar is specified, the application will
stop playback when stopchar is pressed. If
the file does not exist, the application jumps to priority n+101, if present (where n is the current priority number).
The skipms option specifies how far
forward or backward to jump in the file with each press of
ffchar or
rewchar.
A pausechr option may also be
specified, which will pause playback of the file. Pressing
pausechr again will continue the playback
of the file.
Returns -1 if the channel was
hung up during playback.
