Not working correctly when user watches a video on a page

[nerra0pos]

When a user is watching a video e.g. YouTube embedded on the page, he fastly goes idle with your script (not accounting the view time of a video).

It would be good, if you could implement a beacon function which could be triggered manually in order to let the script continue measuring time.

TimeMe.resetIdleCountdown() seems to do what you are asking...

Any working solution ? @terrapop How did you solve this problem?

I tried this approach, using the following code:

                            iframePlayer.on('timeupdate', function(data){
                                TimeMe.resetIdleCountdown();
                            });

However it doesn't do anything at all, I can see using a console.log that it's really executed (about four times per secnd) but still it doesn't seem to count the time I'm spending in my video player iframe. Any clues?
