Chromecast: Is it possible to override the progress sent to sender apps via the Chromecast receiver app?

I am trying to report the approximate position of a live stream to our sender apps (user is able to seek around our "live" streams so they are not always at the live edge).
Specifically for Android the value I want to override comes back via the progress listener:
castSession?.remoteMediaClient?.addProgressListener(progressListener, 1000)
Currently this value is inaccurate for live streams and I believe it just reports the position in the current window or something.
On the receiver end I've looked into intercepting the MEDIA_STATUS event but this event does not emit frequently enough.
player.setMessageInterceptor(
cast.framework.messages.MessageType.MEDIA_STATUS,
status =>
status.currentTime = some overridden time here;
return status;
);
Has anyone had success overriding the progress time sent to sender apps?
I suppose one solution might be using a custom callback message the emits every second?

If you believe this is a bug in the Cast SDK, the please file an issue: issuetracker.google.com/…

@LeonNicholls not a bug just curious if theres a way to override/intercept progress listener similarly to how you can intercept MEDIA_STATUS events and such.
