Description

Use the showSelection property to play a portion of the movie or sound.

If a player's showSelection property is set to true, the user can shift-drag the thumb on the player controller to set the player's startTime and endTime properties, and the controller bar indicates the selected section as a dark gray bar.

If the showController property is false, the setting of the showSelection has no effect.
