!seek

The !seek command allows users to fast forward or rewind the currently playing song to a specific time position. It provides users with control over the playback, allowing them to jump to any point in the song.

Purpose​

  • The !seek command is designed to allow users to change the current position in the song.
  • This command is useful for skipping intros, revisiting favorite parts of a song, or moving past sections they don't want to listen to.

How It Works​

When you issue the !seek command followed by a time value (in seconds), Dollar adjusts the playback of the current song to the specified time position.

  • Dollar receives a time value in seconds, which indicates the new position in the song.
  • The bot then jumps to that specific point in the song and resumes playback from there.
  • If the time value is outside the range of the song (i.e., longer than the song's duration), Dollar will notify you that the seek time is invalid.

Usage​

!seek <time_in_seconds>
  • Replace <time_in_seconds> with the desired time position in seconds.

Example​

!seek 120

In this example, the bot will jump to the 2-minute mark (120 seconds) in the currently playing song.

Important Notes​

  • The !seek command allows users to navigate to specific points in a song quickly.
  • This command is useful for skipping intros, revisiting favorite parts, or moving past sections of a song.
  • Make sure to provide the time value in seconds to accurately seek to the desired position.
  • If the seek time is invalid (outside the song's duration), Dollar will inform you that the seek time is not valid.
