Description

In order for an audio stream to be played back from an arbitrary location within the stream, a setTime() method would be beneficial. Usage would be like this:

function doClick(e) {  
    audioPlayer.url = "http://domain/to/mp3_file.mp3";
	audioPlayer.setTime(55000); // Playback from the 55th second
	audioPlayer.start();
}

Made a Pull Request for this: https://github.com/sheran/titanium_mobile/commit/2f7b2f253e95a76615ac9416beeebd0a86ecf836 I've tested on OS X 10.8.3 and works well. Would appreciate anyone else that is willing to test.

Does the setTime work when playing local mp3 files?
