cross browser accessing markers in an embedded video

Hi

I have a video (.wmv) that has markers in itone can access these markers in video players like "Windows Media Player" at "view" -> "file markers"
I want to embed the video object in an HTML page and be able to let the user jump to these markers via JavaScript or such.
I managed to do this with Internet Explorer ודןמע JavaScript but I can't get any other browser to access these markers or any timeline function for that matter.
I need to be able to do so cross browser.

any ideas?

 

Since .wmv is a proprietary Windows format file, I doubt there's any cross-browser support for handling them with JavaScript.

 

ok, forget about the file format. let's say it can be any format i want it to be.

I poked around a bit and didn't see any help. HTML 5 allows for setting chapter stops that you could set as your own markers and use the seek controls. But browser support for this is still poor and there seems to be quite a bit of the HTML 5 specification for the <video> tag that's still not final. Sorry I couldn't help.

 

thanks for giving it a shot.anyone else before I let myself get frustrated ?

 

ok, I'm frustrated.
