I Can't Find It But I Have A Question About The Decoder SDK.

If I Am Not Mistaken I Read The The MC Decoder SDK Will Write The Decoded Information To The Drive In Reverse Order.

I Am Unclear Why I Would Want This And Why It Would Be Handy To Have In Reverse Order.

Would The Output Wave Play Backwards?

Could Someone Explain This To Me?

To listen to songs backwards, hunting for secret messages?

That's how they made the example.  You can also take a look my plugins to see something a bit more practical.  http://mcplugins.sourceforge.net

No Just Wondering Why...

So It Was Only A Sample On How To Write The Wave File Backwards?

So If I Attempt To Use The Decoder SDK I Can Get It To Write Out The Wave Correctly, And Then Do Something With It?

Is There A Way To Limit The Decode Write Like Decode Only 30 Seconds To A Wave File Out Of Lets Say A 3 Min MP3?

I Am Sure You Are Using C, That Would Not Help My Brittle And Feeble Mind

Yep, as good as any other I suppose.  The output is just a backwards wave file, so you can do whatever you want to it.

You would have to calculate how many samples or bytes make up 30 seconds and then just stop decoding, but yes, you should be able to do that.

Yes, I use C.  But don't feel bad, I probably couldn't figure out VBasic very quickly either.  Isn't the SDK in C anyway though?

I have never looked at it, Maybe i might now if I know i can create a wave from any media file type

If all you wanted was a decode to (forward) wav, it's a pretty easy implementation from the SDK.
If all you wanted was a 30 second wav plugin, it would be a little harder but not much.
If you want anything in the way of tagging, that's when it starts to get harder.

You want some help?  I can probably get you a basic plugin that does 30 seconds with no tagging in a few hours (once I get home from work).

Thats Ok

I Will Play With It Maybe This Week End To See If I Can Work With It.
