Could someone show me an example of getting and setting a song's position and displaying the position on a bar or something?

On your channel object, you can use GetPosition(mode:int) to get the current position in bytes.
To convert that to seconds, you can use the Bytes2Seconds(pos:Long) method.

I know. I was just wondering if someone could show me some code where you can select where on a trackbar (CreateSlider(x,y,w,h,g,SLIDER_TRACKBAR|SLIDER_HORIZONTAL)) to skip around in the song.

How come there isn't a SetPosition method?

Oversight, I would guess :-p

Anyhoo, if you get out the latest now it's in there. Also check out example 5 which demonstrates using it (press keys 0-5).

Sweet! Thanks, Brucey.
