I don't consider this a bug but as a feature.

Thanks for the rapid reply! I guess I wasn't clear in the original message... I started a VM (Windows 7 guest) and once it was up started the recording. I recorded for about an hour and a half. The resulting WebM stream had a start time stamp of just shy of three hours and an apparent length of just over 4 hours (according to VLC). I don't believe the VM was running for 2+ hours before I started recording, but it's possible. Having a non-zero start time is confusing because it's harder to line up audio tracks and also players like VLC think the video is much longer than it is so the slide bar doesn't work like you'd think it would (e.g. if you slide the bar to advance to what appears to be the middle of the video you've actually gone way past the end). That said it would be MUCH better if the video timestamp were to start at 0 (without having to recode the video :-). Is there a setting somewhere that can force VirtualBox recordings to start at 0? I looked but didn't find anything on the InterWebs about it. Thanks!
