All other possible arguments must<br /> # be ignored. The resulting wav file (or the rest of<br /> # the file after initial seek) is written to the standard<br /> # output by the ssc_prog program.

Log level 9 will churn<br /> # out scads of useless debugging information. Values in between<br /> # will vary the amount of logging you get.

This takes<br /> # more time, obviously, although the time hit will only happen the<br /> # first time you scan a particular file.<br /> #<br /> # 2 (Painfully aggressive)<br /> # This walks through the entire song, counting the number of frames.<br /> # This should result in accurate song times, but will take the most<br /> # time.
