al_get_sample...tance_position(3alleg5)

✨ NAME ✨

al_get_sample_instance_position — it's giving "where are we in this song rn" energy, and it's part of the Allegro 5 API (that's the 3alleg5 manual, bestie 💖).

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_audio.h>

unsigned int al_get_sample_instance_position(const ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_INSTANCE *spl)

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so. You've got a sample instance — an ALLEGRO_SAMPLE_INSTANCE, the whole main character of your audio moment — and you want to know where in the playback it currently is. That's it. That's the function. al_get_sample_instance_position hands you the playback position of that sample instance, and it gives it back to you as an unsigned int. 💅

Like, it's a positional vibe check for your audio. Not me being obsessed with a getter function but here we are 🦋

and that's the whole page, no cap ✨ This little cutie lives in the Allegro reference manual, in the Allegro 5 API (3alleg5) — so go forth, read your playback position, and slay 💖🎀🌸
