http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14104 --- Comment #20 from Silvia Pfeiffer <silviapfeiffer1@gmail.com> 2011-11-12 21:58:35 UTC --- If you go to any of the videos on http://www.youtube.com/live , they all show as the time at the beginning of the video the actual time that has passed since the video started streaming. These times are easily matched to the time stamps on a streaming text service such as http://streamtext.net/. In fact, YouTube have used the services of a streaming text service before to caption live video: http://gigaom.com/video/youtube-launches-live-captions-at-google-io/. This ran exactly how I described: when a viewer started watching the video, they also received the streaming text with the time stamps since the beginning of the transmission, which the video player was then able to synchronize. It is possible to implement this fully in JavaScript with the current specifications so I am not going to reopen this. But I expect that with the progress that we make for WebRTC we may also need to revisit this issue and wanted to leave more details on this bug. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
