## Syntax

```lua
bool setSoundPosition(sound sound, float seconds)
```

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `sound` | `sound` | The `sound` element. On the client a `dui` element also works, for the browser's sound. |
| `seconds` | `float` | The point in the track, in seconds. |

## Returns

`true` if the position changed, `false` if the sound was not found or has no length.

## Example

```lua
local music = playSound("sounds/track.mp3")
setSoundPosition(music, 42.5)
```

### Note

This is the playback position, not the position in the world. To move a 3D sound, use `setElementPosition`.
