Playback Info [pi]

This request returns a Playback Info data structure for the specified playback fader.

!This request is available in CueServer 2 only for compatibility with the original CueServer 1 API. Use of this request is depreciated and is not encouraged. Use Extended Playback Info [epi] instead.

The PI selector was originally designed for CS1 and therefore is restricted to fixed point fade times, cue IDs with only one digit of precision after the decimal point and it is missing several new playback features available in CS2. This selector is provided for compatibility only and is not recommended for use with CS2.
