Anyway, I'm pushing startOffsetTime because I need it for my webapp :-) You also need to fix your startTime, because now it doesn't conform to spec. This was my original bug (use case) to the WHATWG and browsers: I stream conferences using Ogg Theora+Vorbis using Icecast2. I have built a site that shows the video and then automatically shows the slides (as PNG files) as well. I use orbited (COMET) to have the server PUSH my «next» presses on my keyboard. The problem is that icecast does heavy buffering, and also the client, so that while I switch the slides, the browser will go from slide 3 to 4 WAY too early (from 10 second to 1 minute). If I could get the timestamp OR time-since-started-sending/recording from the ogg file in javascript, I'd be able to sync everything. There are multiple way to sync this, may even an stream with the slide-data INSIDE the ogg file, however, AFAIK there's also no way of getting out such arbitrary streams. 401933 1 odin.omdal+webkit 2011-05-11 06:17:11 -0700 Can this be confirmed? 547321 2 nickshanks 2012-02-01 13:18:43 -0800 BBC blog post regarding their implementation of this in Firefox: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/researchanddevelopment/2012/01/implementing-startoffsettime-f.shtml 1984684 3 ahmad.saleem792 2023-10-12 13:02:17 -0700 Nothing to do here.
