How to play only a portion of my video

When I am creating my Alice video, I frequently need to play my video to check various behaviors. But this is very time consuming when I just want to check a small portion of the video. How do I just check a portion or segment of my video?

the only thing you can do is fast forward it to the part that you want, or record your whole alice video and then use the recording.

Thank-you for responding, I wish there was something more I could do though then just fast fowarding.

If your code isn't too complicated, the following may produce the result you want:
in the events window, change the method(s) executed by the "when the world begins" event.

By doing this, your world will begin playing (I think that's what you mean by "playing the video") at the method called by the "when world begins" event. The beginning of your world will be skipped.

Hope this helps.

Thank-you, but unfortunately

my code is complicated and I need things to be in a certain spot when I work on it to see if something is right or wrong so I guess I will have to continue with fast fowarding. Thank-you for responding.

normally people just right click on their methods or events and click "disable" which the world won't use that bit of code when running
