Thank you to all who have given advice and links and comments etc. to my
queries posted last week. I've been chasing up all the papers on line and
trying to get a grasp on the implications each path taken would
hold.<br><br>
I still find it unclear <i>how</i> MP3 conversion (which to me seems to
be a way of reducing the size of a file without affecting quality/time
codes etc., nothing more) or audio streaming (which seems to make a
single large file of all data to enable searching etc.) actually solve
the issue of how to locate a few seconds of material within one audio
file (whatever format). <br>
Is it possible at all? Does it require some small program to be written?
Or is the only real answer to segment/extract each of those small seconds
of material for document linking purposes?<br><br>
I'd love to get a clear answer to this question (which I perhaps didn't
phrase succinctly in the first place) and then hopefully I can stop
bugging you all! : )<br><br>
Cheers,<br>
