Get the video timestamp

I used a video player and I am using this way to show the time position when the video is playing.

Clock1 time interval = 1
But then the label shows that there are 8 hours more but the video doesn’t have 8 hours long.
Also, the milliseconds are not accurate
The minutes, second works well
I suspect that because my time zone is GMT +8, so it added 8 hours??? (but I don’t understand why)
Am I doing sth wrong? Or is there a better option?

#2

just directly set Video_Player.Current Position to label 1

#3

But I thought it would return the milliseconds
Edit: Yes it only return the miiliseconds

#4

I don’t know whether it will solve your query or not, but shouldn’t there be ‘.’ (dot) or ‘:’ in place of ‘,’ (comma) in the pattern parameter?

#5

Let me try

#6

There is no problem with both “,” (comma) and “.” (dots)

#7

Why not try this one?
hh:mm:ss

#8

Because I have to make it as .srt format so I have to make it in HH:mm:ss,SSS
I checked the documentation and followed to the link: SimpleDateFormat (Java Platform SE 7 )

#9

Then @Vaibhav is right.
You should use dot instead of comma.
Like this one:
hh:mm:ss.SSS

@WatermelonIce
Set label to current position and then multiply it with 0.001
Lable will show seconds

#11

Tried, same result: minutes and seconds works well, but the hour part is added by 8

Oh yes lemme try that
EDIT: but i also need milliseconds, minutes and hours

#13

Updated

Then also use join text block and multiply with respective values
u will get what u want

#14

But should I use round or sth? cuz it shows all decimal number.
Edit: I think I should use the floor block

#15

Of course u have to if u want to get exact values

Updated

U can use length of text block for an easy method

#16

wait when second reaches 60 seconds how do I set to 0 again

#17

Use a variable and store values of second in it when Use If then to detect when it is reach 60 then set it to zero again and repeat

#18

set what to zero
I shouldn’t set the the current position

#19

Hmmm as u r doing with lable set variable to get current position
And then use if then statment if it is 60 or greater than 60 then set that variable to 0
