Can I use start and durations (or end) with flv files? How about with youtube? Here is a xml playlist does not work for flv ... it starts at the right time if I use a youtube but does not stop. And start/duration/end all do not work for flv. ... Thanks
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/">

start only works if you have serverside support for seeking into a video file.
duration only works if you use the experimental flashvar respectduration [i]true/false[/i] in your player embedding code.
There is no end flashvar.
The XML file that you have posted is a mixup of a playlist file and a configuration file. They must be separate files.
Playlist files consist of File Properties. You can find the equivalent playlist elements for each supported playlist format here: http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/wiki/FlashFormats#Formatmapping
Configuration files consist of all of the supported flashvars, except config.

When you use a playlist, ALL of the File Properties [i]MUST[/i] come from the playlist file.
