I made an example that is supposed to jump start 60 seconds from the
beginning and end at 2 minutes later with a smil file:

<par>
<!-- VIDEO -->
<video src="http://www.acesso.umic.pt/conferencia_id/fichas/id002/filme.mov
" clip-begin="60 sec" clip-end="00:02:00.00" region="videoregion"
title="Inclusão Digital" alt="Apresentação Inclusão Digital" />

<!-- CAPTIONS -->
<textstream src="http://www.acesso.umic.pt/conferencia_id/fichas/id002/caption_mac.txt
" clip-begin="60 sec" clip-end="00:02:00.00" region="textregion"
system-captions="on" title="Legendagem em Português" alt="Legendagem
em Português" />
</par>

But don't work...

I expected that the file will be downloaded and when reached the 60
seconds start the video. But, in fact, the video start immediately
from the beginning.
