[UE 5] Media Player Get Time issue

Hello all,

I’m building a music player interfacing with the online service Audius inside my game. Everything works well except when I want to get the elapsed time while playing a title.

I call the Media Player “Get Time” method while playing and it’s always returning 0.
The “Get Duration” is working.

Any idea ?

Thanks

it will likely need to be using an audio format that is seekable? are you capturing the audio or directly streaming it in?

Hi Steve,

thanks for your reply. I finally founds what problem it was:

In fact UE is blind when the mixer is managed by the system. Sound attenuation doesn’t work too (and I guess some other effects) if that little box is checked… Lost 3 days on that :smiley:
