Parts

object

Resolves to a DirectMusicSegmentState8 object.

Return Values

Returns the seek pointer, in music time.

Error Codes

If the method fails, it raises an error, and Err.Number is set.

Remarks

When a segment is stopped, messages that have been sent but not yet queued to the port buffer are flushed. Therefore, if you stop a segment and then restart it at the last seek pointer, some notes are lost.
