Description

See https://github.com/CoderLine/alphaTab/discussions/1569

The midi tick lookup only allows lookup of playback positions in midi ticks, but not in milliseconds. The translation of midi ticks to milliseconds can be complicated because of tempo changes and the midi formulas.

It would be good if the MidiTickLookup stores also millisecond information and allows lookup of:

  • Beat/Bar playback times in milliseconds ( getMasterBarStart, getBeatStart)
  • Allow translation of milliseconds and ticks (back and forth)
  • Lookup of items via milliseconds (findBeat)
