Hey all,
What would be the "needs" of this sample preview program?
-a file browser: GUI or CLI?
-what sample formats? (MP3 support essential? or all the files supported by
LibSndFile ok?)
-resampling essential? Ie: Sample is recorded at 96kHz, but playback at
44.1kHz?
-gui mockups? (how do you want it to look? )
-waveform preview? (Possibly pointless, it is about the sound right..?)
-length & details? (again.. possibly pointless)
-any other remarks/feature requests etc?
Cheers, -Harry

Button to play whole file.
Button to play first X (configurable) seconds of file.
Button to play X (configurable) seconds of file starting at position Y
(configurable).
Perhaps buttons 2 & 3 could be one button. Have two data entry widgets to the
left of the button, first holds X and second holds Y. Fill out from config
and allow override.
If not combined, give button 2 one such widget for holding X.

Don't mean to be this specific other than to convey the idea.
An extra feature would be to play on hover.
