Hi

I have a video player and trying to make a time indicator of minute and seconds.

I got fairly close, however it started to count backwards 😛

Anyone got a script? Thanks

my\_minutes = Math.floor(seconds/60)  
my\_seconds= seconds -(60\*my\_minutes)

string = my\_minutes+"Min : "+my\_seconds+“Sec”;
