SDL_CDtrack(3)

SDL_CDtrack 💿✨

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL API Reference, and today's main character is SDL_CDtrack — literally the lil struct that holds the tea on every single track on a CD. yes, the whole manual name is SDL API Reference, we're in the official docs, act like it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

SDL_CDtrack — CD Track Information Structure

like, it's a structure. it tracks info. about tracks. iconic behavior tbh.

🎀 STRUCTURE DEFINITION 🎀

typedef struct{
  Uint8 id;
  Uint8 type;
  Uint32 length;
  Uint32 offset;
} SDL_CDtrack;

copy that exactly, do not freestyle it, i am begging 🫶

💖 STRUCTURE DATA 💖

okay so here's what's inside this little guy:

• id — the track number, ranging from 0-99. that's it. that's the id.
• type — either SDL_AUDIO_TRACK or SDL_DATA_TRACK. vibe check: is it music or is it data?
• length — how long this track is, measured in frames. frames, bestie, not seconds. we'll get there.
• offset — the frame offset pointing to the very beginning of this track. like, where it starts.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

SDL_CDtrack stores data on each track on a CD, and ngl its fields should be pretty self explainatory. it's a member of the SDL_CD structure, so it does not roll alone — it's part of the squad 👑

Note: 🚨 Frames can be converted to standard timings. There are CD_FPS frames per second, so SDL_CDtrack.length/CD_FPS=length_in_seconds. math is mathing, that's the conversion, use it 💀
