           Summary: The timeupdate event does not appear to consistently
                    fire
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://will.johnstonclan.net/uwrf-music-history/index.
                    html
        OS/Version: Windows 7
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Media Elements
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: will at johnstonclan.net


I created a personal javascript app to help me with a college music history
class. Basically, it grabs a random mp3 from a list, and plays a 30 second clip
from some randomly selected portion of the mp3, and I have to pick which piece
it belongs to.

I have a bit of code that listens to the timeupdate event and fades out the
music when there are two seconds left. This same handler also updates the
progress bar. However, sometimes the progress bar stops updating in the middle
of a piece and it plays until the end of the piece rather than cutting off
after 30 seconds. A possibly related issue is that the progress bar will
sometimes start in the middle rather than at the beginning.

I have these problems in Safari 4, Chrome, and the webkit nightlies. Firefox
works consistently.

This very well could be my fault and Firefox is just more forgiving, so if I
have some terrible code in there, please let me know and mark this as
notabug/wontfix.

Thanks!
