    Hi All,

    Is there no way to get the current exact playback time for a movieTexture? I can't find it in the documentation if there is. I find this very frustrating, since I can't find anyway to ensure synchronicity between different long-duration movietextures, which for what I'm working on is quite a big problem. If the unity folks are listening, is there any good reason this data is not accessible in the API?

    Has anyone integrated an alternative ogg theora decoder/reader that does provide this type of data? I need to be able to goToTime() and read .currentTime

    If no one else has done this it actually might be worth the work to do this, since all my current projects involve lengthy and time-critical video playback.

    Thanks!
