earliestMediaTime property

Gets a value that indicates the earliest time for efficient seeking.

Syntax

JScript
b = object.earliestMediaTime

 

Property values

Type: Variant

the earliest efficient seek time.

Remarks

earliestMediaTime was introduced in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.

This method is intended for seeking in media streams that might have excessive latency, such as streams sent over a network. The returned values indicate cached data that has already arrived, which can be easily seeked. It is assumed that seeking to values beyond these returned parameters can cause a delay, while the application waits for the data to arrive.
