Hi Calin,

I have exactly the same concern. I wanted to be able to setup several 
VoD objects created from the same media file, but with different 
--start-time (in order to have a chaptered, DVD-like video), but this 
was buggy (the client does not start at the correct position and seeking 
becomes unreliable). Do you know if there is some improvement in that 
area? Or did you find another solution?

Thank you,
Eric
