If what you want to know is the progress of the current replay
session, you could do
cControl *Control = cControl::Control();
if (Control) {
int Current, Total;
if (Control->GetIndex(Current, Total)) {
// do something with the values
}
}
This should work with any player that uses the cControl/cPlayer
facilities. Of course this doesn't return useful values in
transfer mode.
