Hello,  
i need some help…  
i have streamed the video and it plays well. all i need to do now is show the current time of where the video is at.  
i know but using the ns.time shows you the time in seconds, but i need it to be displayed in minutes:seconds format.  
i’ve tried using this formula : ns.time % 60, but once it reaches 60 it starts back at 1 any help is appreciated thanks 🙂
