       #include "SDL.h"

       int SDL_CDPlayTracks(SDL_CD *cdrom, int start_track, int start_frame, int ntracks, int nframes));

DESCRIPTION

       SDL_CDPlayTracks plays the given CD starting at track start_track, for ntracks tracks.

       start_frame  is the frame offset, from the beginning of the start_track, at which to start. nframes is the frame offset, from the beginning
       of the last track (start_track+ntracks), at which to end playing.

       SDL_CDPlayTracks should only be called after calling SDL_CDStatus to get track information about the CD.

EXAMPLES

       /* assuming cdrom is a previously opened device */
       /* Play the entire CD */
       if(CD_INDRIVE(SDL_CDStatus(cdrom)))
	 SDL_CDPlayTracks(cdrom, 0, 0, 0, 0);

       /* Play the first track */
       if(CD_INDRIVE(SDL_CDStatus(cdrom)))
	 SDL_CDPlayTracks(cdrom, 0, 0, 1, 0);

       /* Play first 15 seconds of the 2nd track */
       if(CD_INDRIVE(SDL_CDStatus(cdrom)))
