I have to create a web application that allows perform stream videos.
I need to add a media player to a webpage and know the time that a video was viewed. ie basically have to know how long a user saw a movie, for instance, and then examine this value.
My question is how best to do this.
How can I have access to viewing time of a video running in a browser?
If anyone able to help me thank you so much.

If you are playing the video through flash, for example, then you could have flash send a message back to the server indicating the playing time before it was stopped.

There may very well be something that the control sends back to the client about viewing time, you'd have to check the documentation of the embeddable container, or develop your own that can support this.
