Hi Eric,

Thanks for your help.

I gone through MediaPlayerProxy.cpp for wince. Seems to be only play method
called on the plugin. Can anybody point me where the
currentTime,pause,setSpeed..etc functions were called? Hope I searched
some relevant file, but cant able to find that.

Thanks & Regards,
Arun.
