9. OPERATION
9.9.4 WMA
Windows Media Audio (WMA) is enclosed as data packets into Advanced Systems Format (ASF) files.
This file format is not suitable for random-access.
However, it is also possible to implement fast forward and rewind for WMA files. The easiest way is to
use the resync field (see Section 9.9.3), perfect fast forward and rewind can be implemented by using
the jumpPoints table and making seeks only on packet or data block boundaries.
9.9.5 Midi
Midi is not at all suitable for random-access. You can implement fast forward using the playSpeed
bits of the midiConfig field to select 1-128× play speed. SCI DECODE TIME also speeds up.
If necessary, rewind can be implemented by restarting the decoding of a MIDI file and fast forwarding
to the appropriate place. SCI DECODE TIME can be used to decide when the right place has been
reached. This is best suited for soundless rewind.
