'seek' in sfplay~when using a playlist/sflist~

...doesn't seem to work!
sfplay~: seek: no open file

Max Patch
Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

Is this just something that we all accept that I didn't know about 'til now?

Hey Helhuth,

I appreciate your help but this is not the issue... of course, when you cut and paste objects from a more complex patch to illustrate a problem here, things like this are overlooked. My real question is: is there a way of making seek position work with sfplay~ when running from a play list..

I know people must hate when there is a 'me too' message instead of a response, but I'm having the same problem. Is this due to the fact that a preloaded file into sflist is then not seen as 'currently playing' by sfplay?
