I'm trying to start an RTMP audio stream from a given position. I have seen in this forum that it might work that I give the "?start=" parameter with the position to the playpath string but it doesn't seem to work.

Does anyone have an idea how I can achieve this?

Thanks,

It seems there's currently no way to specify the start position in the RTMP stream. In CDVDInputStreamRTMP::Open() method the CRTMP::Connect() method is invoked without the start position parameter so I guess that's it.

I will try to modify the XBMC source so that it would use a new property for start position.

Like you found there is no such feature at the moment.. I suspect there is some logic to how this is supposed to be handled on rtmp servers. perhaps fragments in url or similar. but i'm not entirely sure.

I believe the trick is that the RTMP connect function can take a second start time parameter i.e

http://trac.xbmc.org/browser/trunk/xbmc/...p.cpp#L100

but the call to the connect function doesn't supply it i.e.
