SceneGraph Video Node: ClipStart, StreamStartTimeOffset, PlayStart do nothing?

Question

I'm working with live feeds that may need the earliest playback position trimmed. From what I gather reading the documentation, the PlayStart field on the content metadata *should* do precisely that. It would appear, however, that setting this field for content on a SG Video node has no effect. The same is true for the ClipStart and StreamStartTimeOffset fields.

Do these fields apply to content in a SG Video nodes? And if not, what is the SG Video node equivalent?

do you mean seek field? https://developer.roku.com/docs/references/scenegraph/media-playback-nodes/video.md

Not seek, no. &nbsp;For example, let’s say you’re watching a live event that started an hour ago, but the video feed started half an hour early. &nbsp;Watching live, you’d want to seek to near the video duration. Starting over, you’d want to seek to half an hour into the feed. &nbsp;The PlayStart field, at I understand it, should let you set that half-hour-in position.
