 Function

Description

void SetExtrusion(float value)

Sets the Extrusion value in percent of the matrix size (depending on the current look-at type).

float GetExtrusion()

Returns the current Extrusion value in percent of the matrix size (depending on the current look-at type).

Setting the Time for Video Playback

If a video is loaded that has a length of 2:45:00 for example, the following source code would set the playback position to 1:25:30.

time t = {1, 25, 30};

SetVideoTime(t);

 

Note: If the given time is higher than the length of the video, the time is set to the end of the video.
