passing playheadTime to php

[rzilzer]

Hi,
I am developing a system based on our VOD (AMS) and AS3 server where a teacher can load a film from our library and mark start and end points so he can have a "playlist" of segments to show in the class.

everything works fine, using FLVPlayback I manage to insert time code in the picture.
But I need to add a button in my PHP page tho grab the PlayhedTime, so I can insert the point in the DB.
Right now I force the user to press pause in the playe and write down the time,
not a very efficient idea
all what I need is to get the playheadTime value (the same that writes the timecode in the playaer) in the php the is hosting the playaer withou reloading the page
Thanks

Sounds like you should use serverside scripting on the video host to track this. Failing that, use the URLLoader class.
