Explorer is the only browser (as far as I'm aware) that supports XHTML+SMIL. That's also why the spec for it
is still in w3c-standards-limbo, because a second implementation never materialized.

script to rewind?

script to rewind?

is there a way perhaps using ecmascript to move, for instance an

Whilst a user might have buttons to play pause and rewind, but where  
one or more individuals and or services which may be  remote, is a  
means provide for them to engage?

Require syntax for Media marker "Clip-Begin" for SMIL 2.0/3.0

 I am facing some problem while trying to read a "media" file with "markers"
using Ambulant player. Please see the smil file below.

 It so happens, that the 1st .mp4 file, namely "Gorill2.mp4" plays well, in
Ambulant player 2.0.2 using clipBegin element with absolute time. However,
the Ambulant player complains of "Cannot parse clipBegin" and "Cannot parse
clipEnd" when it tries to read Movie2.flv, which is a .mp4 file with cue
points "Begin" and "End" in a separate file, namely "movie2.txt", the
contents of which are listed below the smil file.
The movie2.flv is created unsing Flash 8 encoder.

 Am I going wrong in somewhere ? Also, is there an alternative way of
marking cue points to a .mp4 file, to be read from a SMIL file ? 

<smil xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/SMIL" version="3.0"
baseProfile="Language">
<body>
    <par>    
      <video src="Gorill2.mp4" clipBegin="npt=4s" clipEnd="npt=8s"/>
 <!--
   <video src="Movie2.flv" clipBegin="marker=movie2.txt#Begin"
clipEnd="marker=movie2.txt#End"/>	    	     -->
    </par>
</body>
</smil>

Re: Require syntax for Media marker "Clip-Begin" for SMIL 2.0/3.0

Your problem is implementation, not standardisation.

The construct you use is correct according to the SMIL 3.0 spec. But: I know of no SMIL players that actually
implement the 
clipBegin="marker=#foo" functionality. In addition, the SMIL spec is vague (and intentionally so) as to
what the external
representation of markers is.

Ambulant has some minimal support for markers, but (a) only for markers defined in SmilText files, and (b)
only for used
in event-based timing.

Adding support to Ambulant for markers in the way you sketch shouldn't be too hard: the infrastructure is
all in place.
But: we (the CWI ambulant team) don't have the time for this, and no compelling use case right now that will
let us
make time. But if you have the developer capabilities yourself we are (as always) more than willing to help.

Require examples of SmilText as External format + A tool to mark cue points.

I am in need of the following items.

a)Links to examples, related to SmilText being used as External Format.
b)Any tool, which I can use, to mark Cue Points, on .mp4 format files,
(other than Flash) which can be played in SMIL, using media markers.

I anyone is aware of them, please let me know.

SMIL and script

Require syntax/method of executing SMIL file with <param> element.

 Is anyone aware of calling a smil file with paramaters at runtime ? I
require the syntax of the call along with parameters.

  i.e given the SMIL file test.smil. 

 a)How do I run it in browser along with parameters ? i.e
http://localhost/test.smil  ?  ? (parameters)
 b)How do pass parameters to a smil file when run in any Media Player

Test.smil
