Or scanning the beginning, the end, and if the end is lower than the begining (i.e. a reset happened), try to find the place of the reset by dichotomy. It might also be that the reset always happen at the same time, and in this case, knowing this time is enough to calculate the length. I can try to check when the reset occurs, and find out if the value is always the same. > One second: resetting may not be bad. Maybe they reset when a new > show. I think not (at least not here): I often have the timer in mplayer showing 22 hours and something (well, at least I *guess* that mplayer is displaying time based on PTS), and this is absolutely not related to the current time, and it is not reset from show to show. Besides, I also have also played with Thomas' timeshift patch and implemented a DVB timeshift in MPlayer-1.0pre4 and my dvbrecord (modified tzap program that saves the stream to a file, or for that case, into the timeshift's ringbuffer). It crashes sometimes, I haven't had time to find out why, but basically it works.
