get_midi_length(3)		Allegro	manual		    get_midi_length(3)

NAME
       get_midi_length	- Determines the total playing time of a midi, in sec-
       onds. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<allegro.h>

       int get_midi_length(MIDI	*midi);

DESCRIPTION
       This function will simulate playing the given MIDI, from	start to  end,
       to  determine  how  long	it takes to play. After	calling	this function,
       midi_pos	will contain the negative number of beats, and	midi_time  the
       length of the midi, in seconds.

       Note  that  any	currently  playing  midi is stopped when you call this
       function.  Usually you would call  it  before  play_midi,  to  get  the
       length of the midi to be	played,	like in	this example:

	  length = get_midi_length(my_midi);
	  play_midi(my_midi);
	  do {
	     pos = midi_time;
	     textprintf_ex(screen, font, 0, 0, c, -1, "%d:%02d / %d:%02d\n",
		pos / 60, pos %	60, length / 60, length	% 60);
	     rest(100);
	  } while(pos <= length);

RETURN VALUE
       Returns the value of midi_time, the length of the midi.
