NAME
     DTatohmsf - convert ASCII string to hours, minutes, seconds, frames

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <dmedia/dataudio.h>

     int DTatohmsf(const char* str, int* h, int* m, int* s, int* f)

PARAMETERS
     str   A pointer to the ASCII string to be converted.

     h     A pointer to the location to store the hours value.

     m     A pointer to the location to store the minutes value.

     s     A pointer to the location to store the seconds value.

     f     A pointer to the location to store the frame value.

RETURNED VALUE

DESCRIPTION
     DTatohmsf converts an ASCII string of the form

              "00:00:00:00"


     representing a DAT time code, into four integers with an integer each for
     hours, minutes, seconds and frame number.  Any of the following
