         UINT32 xmaBlocksToSkip  
)  
```

### Parameters

*context*   \_Inout\_\
Type: [SHAPE\_SRC\_CONTEXT](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/audio/shapesrccontext/structs/shape_src_context.md)\*

Pointer to a [SHAPE\_SRC\_CONTEXT](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/audio/shapesrccontext/structs/shape_src_context.md) object.

*xmaBlocksToSkip*   \
Type: UINT32

Number of blocks to skip.

### Return value

Type: HRESULT
