    Hi,

    This is completely player side fucntionality you are asking for. However, I guess default player that comes on safari (iPad), quicktime has the player timeline with stop and start option. But if not, you can create your custom player using exposed api of AVPlayer. Check-out AVPlayer api's.

    FMS, by nature of protocol will respect the request to get the data(in case of client-play-start)  and will not automatically push the data to the client if not asked for by the client (as in case of client-play-stop).

    Thanks
