does the starttime/startTime option work? Do we want to keep it?

Description

Right now I see an option for start time referenced in a few places under two different names. I am thinking that it is a legacy option that probably does not work anymore. Do we want to make it work again, or fix the option?

Code Links:

• starttime
• startTime?

I vote to kill it. I don't think it's documented. And it's not a standard attribute.

We discussed this morning and I believe the path forward will be to remove the startTime option being passed to the tech since it isn't used and we will deprecate the starttime option of the player in case someone is using it.

Found a place where startTime is used. https://github.com/videojs/video.js/blob/master/src/js/tech/flash.js#L49

Do we want to keep startTime and deprecate starttime then?

[misteroneill]

Yeah, I think that's probably what we need to do for now. It's mainly harmless.
