Controlling media player in VBA question
I want to get media player to jump back 5 seconds with a VBA macro
I tried Dim lastpos As Long MP.CurrentPosition = lastpos - 5 but that didn't work. It just says: run time error 380 currentposition must be -1.0 or greater than or equal to 0.0 Anyone know how it might be done? |

Controlling media player in VBA question
Not a media player expert, but I would guess from the code you have given,
lastpos = 0. Therefore you are trying to set CurrentPosition = -5, which, as the error message states, is invalid. So you have to set the value of lastpos somewhere and check its value lastpos=MP.<SomeProperty 'code.... Const REWIND_SECONDS as long=5 if lastposREWIND_SECONDS then MP.CurrentPosition = lastpos - REWIND_SECONDS else MP.CurrentPosition = 0 end if Not sure what a CurrentPosition = -1 means, but check the docs.
