powerpoint >> Playing a movie clip at a point in time, not the beginning

On my Windows computer with PPT 2003 I could begin playing a movie clip at a given point in time within the clip. But now on my new MacBook with PPT 2008 I cannot find this effect. A slide created this way on my Windows computer will perform properly, but I can't find this function either on the formatting palette or under custom animation. Do movie files have to begin playing right at the beginning of the clip in PPT 2008 or on a Mac?
