Allow share links that can jump to a specific timestamp in a video preview

[ZGM]

Maybe this is an already-buried feature like the dl=1 & raw=1 URL parameters available on shared links, but if there could be an option to jump the preview page video player to a specific timestamp it would be very handy.

Our current workaround is using the comment-at-a-timestamp feature, but then we need people to open the commenting sidebar and click the small timestamp link on the specific comment in order to jump there ☹️

Thanks!

Hi Walter!
I ended up looking for this feature and would just like to vote for it.
This would be a great addition to already powerful Dropbox.

I have long screen recordings and would like to refer to certain key moments in videos and was trying to figure out if the URL can be manipulated so that it would be possible to start the video from desired moment.

I can see use cases for this in knowledge transfer. because it's not there, I'm now considering moving all videos to private "Youtube" / Dreambroker solution. but it would be great if Dropbox could provide this small, but quite essential feature.
