That MIGHT work, but the client would prefer an
out-of-the-box-with-nothing-else-required-for-the-user-to-do solution.
But even then, unless I get the playback to start at an arbitrary time
in the clip it's a no-go.
Have you ever been able to get the Win engine to start at any time other
than zero in Rev?
Man, I thought this was fixed ages ago. Argh......
