Doesn't > this change cause problems? It can't in Opera, since currentTime will always start at 0 (modulo bugs). Is there any browser that really intends to let currentTime start at an offset, and why? If so, I suppose that the seek knob will start somewhere in the middle and that any attempt to seek to before that point will just seek to that non-zero offset. That's a pretty weird UI and one reason I think the timeline should always be normalized, whatever the timestamps or other metadata of the resource itself says. -- Philip J?genstedt Core Developer Opera Software
