Media Server 24.1

# StartOffset

The position in the video at which to start processing. For example, to ignore the first minute of a video file, set this parameter to `60seconds`.

This parameter is only supported when you process files (it is not supported if you ingest a stream).

Media Server must still demux the video up to the time that you specify, so if you choose to process the last few seconds of a long video file, be aware that the action could take a significant amount of time.

Type: | Time duration The value of this parameter is a time duration. Specify a value using one or more of the following units:
         days          d
         hours         h
         minutes       m
         seconds       s
         milliseconds  ms
         microseconds  us
For example, all of the following are equivalent:
         1minute 3seconds
         1m 3s
         63s
Default: | 0
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName
Example: | `StartOffset=30seconds`
