HERE's the behaviour from Tabuleiro that is used with their
'DirectMediaXtra', but it should work with any video.
Josh
-- DirectMediaXtra Time Slider
-- based on the Video Time Slider from the behavior library version 1.1
-- requires an 'extent' cast member that limits the range the slider
'slides'
-- controls the currenttime of a DirectMediaXtra sprite,
-- if the sprite is playing the slider moves automatically
property pDuration, pMovieTime, VideoSprite
property extentSprite
property hiliteMember -- looks like the handle plus hilite graphics
-- also holds the member of handle while hilited
property tracking
property newLocH
property newLocV
property dynamic -- if true and sending true, sends value while tracking
property min, max -- the range the slider maps to
property valrange -- the difference of max and min, set on begin
property minScreen, maxScreen -- calculated from the screen coords of the
extent
property currentScreenVal -- the data point in screen coords, set in
tracking
property extentlength -- in screen coords, set on begin
property CurrentVal
