Specifying playback range

When specifying the URI of media for an <audio> or <video> element, you can optionally include additional information to specify the portion of the media to play. To do this, append a hash mark ("#") followed by the media fragment description.

A time range is specified using the syntax:

#t=[starttime][,endtime]

The time can be specified as a number of seconds (as a floating-point value) or as an hours/minutes/seconds time separated with colons (such as 2:05:01 for 2 hours, 5 minutes, and 1 second).

A few examples:

http://foo.com/video.ogg#t=10,20

Specifies that the video should play the range 10 seconds through 20 seconds.

http://foo.com/video.ogg#t=,10.5

Specifies that the video should play from the beginning through 10.5 seconds.

http://foo.com/video.ogg#t=,02:00:00

Specifies that the video should play from the beginning through two hours.

http://foo.com/video.ogg#t=60

Specifies that the video should start playing at 60 seconds and play through the end of the video.
