Explanation
The Start method starts the video. The Mode parameter determines how the video will be displayed in the Play Control. The Rate parameter sets the speed. Default speed is 1.0. Values of 0 or less are not allowed. Depending on the type of file played (for example WMV format) the Rate parameter may not have any effect. In that case, the rate is 1.0
When the Start method returns True, the State property is updated. If the return value is False, then values of 2, 5, or 11 will be set in the ErrorStatus property.
To specified the starting location of the video, use the StartFrom method.
