asterisk users - Dec 2010 - 'Bookmarking' a place in a sound file

Hi all,

Is it possible to somehow 'bookmark' a place in a sound file? That is,
the
user presses a key while a sound file is playing and that point is saved,
and some time in the future we can play the same sound file and tell it to
start playing from that point.

This would be done within a perl AGI program.

Thanks for any advice!

The AGI command 'stream file' will return 'endpos' when
interrupted with a
keypress. You could then save that in a channel variable or a database.

A subsequent call to 'stream file' would include 'endpos' as the
'sample
offset.'
