the spec said:

4.3.5.2 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pantos-http-live-streaming-19#section-4.3.5.2>.
EXT-X-START

   The EXT-X-START tag indicates a preferred point at which to start
   playing a Playlist.  By default, clients SHOULD start playback at
   this point when beginning a playback session.  This tag is OPTIONAL.

   Its format is:

   #EXT-X-START:<attribute-list>

   The following attributes are defined:

      TIME-OFFSET

      The value of TIME-OFFSET is a signed-decimal-floating-point number
      of seconds.  A positive number indicates a time offset from the
      beginning of the Playlist.  A negative number indicates a negative
      time offset from the end of the last Media Segment in the
      Playlist.  This attribute is REQUIRED.

      The absolute value of TIME-OFFSET SHOULD NOT be larger than the
      Playlist duration.  If the absolute value of TIME-OFFSET exceeds
      the duration of the Playlist, it indicates either the end of the
      Playlist (if positive) or the beginning of the Playlist (if
      negative).

      If the Playlist does not contain the EXT-X-ENDLIST tag, the TIME-
      OFFSET SHOULD NOT be within three target durations of the end of
      the Playlist file.




I think there have some think should be checked:

the TIME-
      OFFSET SHOULD NOT be within three target durations of the end of
      the Playlist file.
