Manual load with start time

A sample showing how to initialize playback at a specific start time.

  • For VoD content the start time is relative to the start time of the first period.
  • For live content
    • If the parameter starts from prefix posix: it signifies the absolute time range defined in seconds of Coordinated Universal Time (ITU-R TF.460-6). This is the number of seconds since 01-01-1970 00:00:00 UTC. Fractions of seconds may be optionally specified down to the millisecond level.
    • If no posix prefix is used the starttime is relative to MPD@availabilityStartTime

In this example playback starts 60 seconds from the current wall clock time.
