Normally the playback will start from the beginning of the playlist, but some servers do not keep media files after they have disappeared from the sliding window.

VIP1500/1700 only support fast or normal mode. VIP1200 always use normal mode. | fast - Show a picture as fast as posible. normal - Don't show anything until A/V sync. adaptive - Show video in slow motion until A/V sync is correct. | normal | Streamer config, URI | - |
| PARAM_STATISTICS_BEFORE_CA | In some cases it is desirable to restrict the range of playback for an asset. This parameter determines the start time in seconds into the asset. While this parameter is in effect, it is not possible to go to a position before the defined time. The parameter is primarily intended for use together with the duration parameter. NOTE! Only implemented for RTSP type servers This parameter determines if the server should avoid playing the entire asset, and selects how much of the asset should be played before reporting end of stream. NOTE! Only implemented for RTSP type servers When this parameter is true, data received before the new PAT/PMT when changing to a new channel is considered valid.
