ReadNextFrame is Synchronous

[Mike-E-angelo]

Hello Community,

I am running into issues with ReadNextFrame and would appreciate some assistance. To start, it appears this method is synchronous. In my case, the stream is from an Azure Blob Container and this method only makes it to the first 00:01:44 of the file (an 8-minute file) and then this method returns null.

If I copy the contents to a MemoryStream, I can read the entire file using this method. Of course, this takes up memory to do this, and would like to avoid this if possible.

I am curious if there is an asynchronous version of this method that would be friendlier with the Azure Blob stream.

For further context, I am using this recommended answer to clip a portion of my file (resulting in a shorter sample file):

If there is a more efficient approach to this I would be grateful to learn of this, as well.

Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

I was able to get around this by using the WaveStream.Skip(seconds) method followed by the WaveStream.ReadExactlyAsync method. 👍
