Description

Use the startTime property to set or get the selection in a player.

If the playSelection property is true, only the selected portion plays, so you can use the startTime and endTime properties of the player to play whatever portion of the sound or movie you want.

The startTime is the number of the interval where the selection begins. (The number of intervals per second is specified by the player's timeScale property. The total number of intervals is given in the player's duration property.) If there is no selection, the startTime is empty.
