You could use any number of ways to do this.  In the content metadata you can set the StreamStartTimeOffset field, or the BookmarkPosition (deprecated), or Playstart, Clipstart and/or ClipEnd or use Seek. Or if the video is always starting from the same place and you want to always skip what is at the beginning you could download the file and cut/crop off the beginning to where you want it to start.

Hello I want to ask one questation more  i have used video node and has played channel video but want to know about status bar.When live channel is being played what is the present time of status bar i.e like in youtube when we played live video the status bar used to be up to end but in this node when we played live streaming url the status bar used to be in start point of status bar.
so want to know which is the present time in status bar for live streaming url and if we have to set then how can we set, can you explain that?

If the program is live streaming then I don't think the times in the status bar show up - it starts at the nearest-to segment to current.
