# resumeTime

The number of seconds from the beginning of the item at which the item begins playing.

## Declaration

```data
attribute int resumeTime;
```

## Discussion

Discussion Use this property to begin playing a media item at a time other than at the beginning of the item. If this property contains anything other than 0, the player displays “Resume” instead of “Play from beginning” on playback.
