Comment:
An attribute to actually find out if something is playing would be nice
(.isplaying). Unless I'm wrong currently you can't actually tell if something
is playing without setting var with JS when you start to play and you can't go
by the playback position since it returns the value in seconds leaving a whole
second  where it should return 0 and thus you can't tell! An attribute that
returns the playback state would also work, with 0 meaning not playing, 1
playing and 2 paused.
