Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It is not possible to open a media with a start timestamp. We are using nextcloud to store our media and it would help us if we could provide a start time when opening a video or audio, as sometimes our audios files are really big with more than 2 to 3 hours.
Describe the solution you'd like
Be able to provide in the url #t=30 or &start_time=30 to start at 30 seconds
Describe alternatives you've considered
For the moment we are indicating to the user by another mean at which timestamp he is supposed to go

Done means a URL containing the requested timestamp starts playback at that position, with coverage for the supported URL form.
