Hey guys,

Could be a known issue, an issue with my code or an oversight on my part.

I have created a video player in flash. I have got it playing progressive and streaming over rtmp/rtmpt so that is all fine.

My only issue is that when the video's are playing, the time-codes for time played and time remaining are not synced. So, if my video is 20 secs long and 5 have been played, time played will be 5secs, time remaining will be 16secs until it updates about half a second later.

So even though they are both being set with the same line of code, there are not changing at the same time. The time played changes, then a split second later the time remaining changes.

Anyone got any idea what this could be. Maybe a miscalculation on my part. Maybe I need to round up or down the remaining time. How can I sync the two times.

I understand this is probably an tough question to answer, I have done my best to explain it.

Thanks in advance.
