Media Server 24.1

# StartTime

The start time:

- For the CreateClip action, the parameter specifies the time in the stream to begin the clip from.
- For the GetPlaylist action, the parameter specifies the start time of the first entry in the playlist.
- For the GetRecordedRanges action, the parameter specifies the earliest time to return a list of available content from.

Specify the date and time in one of the following ways:

- `YYYYMMDDThhmmssZ` (ISO 8601 UTC)

- `YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ`

- `YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss.sss`

- `YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss.sss`

- `YYYY-MMM-DD hh:mm:ss.sss` (where `MMM` is the three-character month name, for example `Jan` or `Feb`)

- Epoch milliseconds. Epoch milliseconds are the number of milliseconds that have passed since January 1st 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. For example, `1430214314000` specifies 09:45:14 on 28 April 2015.

You must use UTC time.
