Is it possible to seek to a particular point in html5 video displayed in a web page? I mean ,can I input a particular time value (say 01:20:30:045 ) and have the player control (slider) move to that point and play from that point onwards? In older version of mozilla vlcplugin I think this is possible by seek(seconds,is_relative) method..but I would like to know if this is possible in html video. Edit: I created the page with video and added javascript as below.When I click on the link ,it displays the time of click..but it doesn't increment the play location..but continues to play normally. Shouldn't the video play location get changed? html <video id="vid" width="640" height="360" controls> <source src="/myvid/test.mp4" type="video/mp4" /> </video> <a id="gettime" href="#">time</a> <p> you clicked at:<span id="showtime"> </span> </p> javascript $(document).ready(function(){ var player = $('#vid').get(0); $('#gettime').click(function(){ if(player){ current_time=player.currentTime; $('#showtime').html(current_time+" seconds"); player.currentTime=current_time+10; } }); } );
