IDirectMusicSegmentState

When the IDirectMusicPerformance::PlaySegment method is called, the performance engine generates a segment state object which tracks the state of the playing segment. It also provides the application with a handle to the segment, in the form of the IDirectMusicSegmentState interface, which can be used to track the playback status of the segment, as well as to directly stop it or remove it from the performance using methods of IDirectMusicPerformance.
