librosa.time_to_frames

librosa.time_to_frames(times, *, sr=22050, hop_length=512, n_fft=None)[source]

Convert time stamps into STFT frames.

Parameters:

timesnp.ndarray [shape=(n,)]: time (in seconds) or vector of time values
srnumber > 0 [scalar]: audio sampling rate
hop_lengthint > 0 [scalar]: number of samples between successive frames
n_fftNone or int > 0 [scalar]: Optional: length of the FFT window. If given, time conversion will include an offset of - n_fft // 2 to counteract windowing effects in STFT.

Note

This may result in negative frame indices.

Returns:

framesnp.ndarray [shape=(n,), dtype=int]

Frame numbers corresponding to the given times:

frames[i] = floor( times[i] * sr / hop_length )
