Callback problems with player

Post by ronn » Sun Mar 29, 2009 8:11 pm

Hi All.

I'm trying to implement callbacks with a player (video). They work fine the first time through but if the user rewinds to view a portion of the video again, the callbacks don't get re-triggered. This is happening in Windows (Vista or XP) running Rev 3.0 or the 3.5 beta.

I believe I've read of this problem before but haven't found a workaround. Any brilliant minds out there know how to resolve the problem? Thanks.

... Ron

Hi Ron,

You probably want to report this to QCC. Also, you can find a little more information here.

Best,

Thanks Mark.

I saw several reports in QCC about this same problem so didn't think there was much point adding another. Must admit that I still don't know if callbacks just don't work when you rewind the player or if there was something else at play.

In any case, not being able to depend on them was a killer for this project. So I've given up on the "real" callbacks and kludged together something else that seems to work. So far, anyway; tomorrow could be a different story!
