    Default Start playing a video n seconds from the beginning

    Hi,

    I'm trying to start playing a video from where I last stopped it, after playing a different video in the middle. The current (broken) flow looks something like this:

    - Video A is playing. I hit a button which logs the video item, the time code, and then launches Video B.
    - I hit a different button that stops Video B, and starts playing Video A again, but from the beginning.

    The problem seems to be that when I call:

    Code:
    mc.Player().Play(video_a)
    mc.Player().SeekTime(time_code)
    Only the first line is executed, because then Boxee jumps out of my app. I suppose this is a very long-winded way of asking: "is there a way to make Boxee play an item n seconds in from the beginning?"

    Default

    the team has said the hope to add this support in a future version.
    personal: boxee | twitter | boxee hq
    boxee: boxee chat | boxee wiki | boxee plugins

    i run boxee 0.9.20 on: ubuntu 9.10, windows xp sp3 (virtual machine), windows 7 and a neuros link hacked to all hell.

    what super powers does a 'super mod' have? the 'super ban'... that, and laser vision.
