For the video tag the attribute that has the play time is "currentTime". This sort of task will be easier once we are using the mv-embed library as a few different plug-in types are mapped to a single html5 like interface. See how timed text/wiki stuff works on metavid.org.

Hi all,
I am looking at the Wikimania videos right now - great stuff!
I noticed that many talks have the slides uploaded as PDFs as well, where we can browse to individual pages within the PDF.
Also, I noticed that there is a large blank space right of a playing video.
So, why not have the appropriate slide show next to the video as it plays? All we'd need is some JavaScript interpreting a template that has timestamp-to-page values. I'd have done it but I couldn't figure out how to query the state (playtime) of the FireFox <video> tag. Anyone know how to?
Cheers, Magnus
