Start audio file at timestamp functionality

Open vxe opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

from the command line VLC can start a track at a specific point

/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC --start-time 5  --end-time 20 9A\ -\ 160\ -\ Euphoria.aif

can this be hooked into listen.el? the goal is to implement a bookmark system for listening to audiobooks by storing start and end time and jumping to them when specified by the user

I worked on something similar recently, but it was tricky to implement with VLC's RC interface, but I didn't realize that there are arguments for start/end time, so that will probably make it easier. Thanks.
