✨ NAME ✨

al_get_video_position — Allegro 5 API

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <allegro5/allegro_video.h>

double al_get_video_position(ALLEGRO_VIDEO *video, ALLEGRO_VIDEO_POSITION_TYPE which)

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so picture this: you're deep in a video stream and you need to know exactly where you are. al_get_video_position is the bestie that returns the current position of the video stream in seconds since the beginning. ⏱️✨

The parameter is one of the ALLEGRO_VIDEO_POSITION_TYPE(3alleg5) constants. You pass that in as which, and the video argument is your ALLEGRO_VIDEO *. The function hands back a double, so it's seconds as a floating point number. 💅

⭐ SINCE ⭐

5.1.0 — iconic behavior since then, no cap. 👑
