Hi, is there a way one can skip a frame in a stream instead of doing mad_frame_decode. Coz I need to make a jump ahead but it takes too much time if I just wait for the say 10 seconds to pass without writing to /dev/dsp but still decoding. I dont know if I attacking the problem in a good way thus any suggestions are welcome.

Yes, you can call mad_header_decode() instead. This will only decode the frame header, without decoding the frame's audio data.
This sort of discussion really belongs on mad-dev rather than mad-user; I've attempted to set the Reply-To: appropriately.
