Brief step back (for missed subs/lines) dev

[ezd]

hi,

i like to be able to step back some seconds in a movie, to re-hear a mumbled line or re-see a quickly disappearing subtitle. search for a keyframe some seconds before the current position- easy.

i indeed quickly made an xbmp patch for this (put it on sf), but while browsing up and down i couldn't find any function to obtain the current playing position- getpercentage is too crude and gettime is for the total running time.

did i totally miss a function or would i need to patch mplayer (if i can get it to compile :))?

thanks,

ezd

k,
just added the following


cmplayer::gettime()
returns current playtime (in secs)

cmplayer::gettotaltime()
returns total duration of movie (in secs)

cmplayer::seektime(int itime)
jump to [itime] seconds


with these functions you should b able to add your patch
