My app opens a midi file using the MCI api. how to retrieve the length of
the MIDI in seconds? The MCI_STATUS_LENGTH status command returns a number,
but how to convert it to seconds?
thanks

The interpretation of the number depends on the time format in effect. Post
again in the multimedia group

microsoft.public.win32.programmer.mmedia

for more information.
